1990年发行的迪士尼电影《美女与野兽》的主题曲

英文歌词：

Tale as old as time

True as it can be

Barely even friends

Than somebody bends

Unexpectedly

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 arise

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.

作词: Howard Ashman

作曲: Alan Menken

演唱: Celine Dion, Peabo Bryson
