Waking up to say
Bonjour! Bonjour!
Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour!
There goes the baker with his tray, like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell
Every morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town
Good Morning, Belle!
Good morning, monsieur Jean
Have you lost something again?
Well, I believe I have
Probably, miss, but I, I can't remember what
Oh, I'm sure it'll come to me
Where you up to?
To take this book to
It's about to lovers in
Sound boring
Look there she goes, that girl is strange, no question
Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?
Never part of any crowd
Cause her head's up on some cloud
No denying she's a funny girl that Belle
Bonjour! Good day!
How is your family?
Bonjour! Good day!
How is your wife?
I need six eggs!
That's too expensive!
There must be more than this provincial life!
(Speaking segment)
Look there she goes, that girl is so peculiar
I wonder if she's feeling well
With a dreamy, far-off look
And her nose stuck in a book
What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle
Oh, isn't this amazing?
It's my favourite part because you'll see
Here's where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three!
Now it's no wonder that her name means "Beauty"
Her looks have got no parallel
But behind that fair façade
I'm afraid she's rather odd
Very diff'rent from the rest of us
She's nothing like the rest of us
Yes, diff'rent from the rest of us is Belle!
(Speaking segment)
Right from the moment when I met her, saw her
I said she's gorgeous and I fell
Here in town there's only she
Who is beautiful as me
So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle
Look there he goes
Isn't he dreamy?
Monsieur Gaston
Oh, he's so cute!
Be still my heart
I'm hardly breathing
He's such a tall, dark, strong and handsome brute!
Woman 1: Bonjour!
Luke Evans: Pardon
Emma Watson: Good day
Woman 2: Mais oui!
Woman 3: You call this bacon?
Woman 4: What lovely grapes!
Man 1: Some cheese
Woman 5: Ten yards!
Man 1: 'one pound
Luke Evans: Excuse me
Cheese merchant: I'll get the knife
Luke Evans: Please let me through!
Woman 6: This bread
Woman 7: Those fish
Woman 6: It's stale!
Woman 7: They smell!
Men: Madame's mistaken
Women: Well, maybe so
There must be more than this provincial life!
Just watch, I'm going to make Belle my wife!
Look there she goes
The girl is strange, but special
A most peculiar mademoiselle!
It's a pity and a sin
She doesn't quite fit in
Cause she really is a funny girl
A beauty but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl
That Belle!
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
[Mrs. Potts]
Winter turns to spring
Famine turns to feast
Nature points the way
Nothing left to say
Beauty and the Beast
[All]
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
Minutes turn to hours, days to years and gone
But when all else has been forgotten
Still our song lives on
Maybe some moments weren't so perfect
Maybe some memories not so sweet
But we have to know some bad times
Or our lives are incomplete
Then when the shadows overtake us
Just when we feel all hope is gone
We'll hear our song and know once more
Our love lives on
How does a moment last forever?
How does our happiness endure?
Through the darkest of our troubles
Love is beauty, love is pure
Love pays no mind to desolation
It flows like a river through the soul
Protects, proceeds and perseveres
And makes us whole
Minutes turn to hours, days to years and gone
But when all else has been forgotten
Still our song lives on
How does a moment last forever
When our song lives on.
She glanced this way, I thought I saw
And when we touched, she didn't shudder at my paw
No, it can't be, I'll just ignore
But then she's never looked at me that way before
New, and a bit alarming
Who'd have ever thought that this could be?
True, that he's no Prince Charming
But there's something in him that I simply didn't see
Well, who'd have thought? Well, bless my soul
Well, who'd have known?
Well, who indeed? And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?
It's so peculiar, wait and see
we'll wait and see a few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before
Here's a thought, perhaps there's something there
that wasn't there before
What mama?
There may be something there that wasn't there before
What is it, what's there?
I'll tell you when you're older
Okay, I'm older
Chip, oh
[Chorus 1:]
Now I know she'll never leave me
Even as she runs away
She will still torment me
Calm me, hurt me
Move me, come what may
Wasting in my lonely tower
Waiting by an open door
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in
And be with me for evermore
[Verse 2:]
I rage against the trials of love
I curse the fading of the light
Though she's already flown so far beyond my reach
She's never out of sight
[Chorus 2:]
Now I know she'll never leave me
Even as she fades from view
She will still inspire me
Be a part of everything I do
Wasting in my lonely tower
Waiting by an open door
I'll fool myself, she'll walk right in
And as the long, long nights begin
I'll think of all that might have been
Waiting here for evermore
