Music Midweek: Beauty and the Beast

I'm a long time fan of Beauty and the Beast. I mean, come on...Sath and Gin? Also, the tv show with Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton? Yes please. So when I heard last week that Greenville, SC native Peabo Bryson died, this was all I could think of. Thank you for this amazing performance.


Lyrics
Songwriters: Howard Elliott Ashman / Alan Irwin Menken

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then 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
And ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Ever just the same
And ever a surprise, yeah
Ever as before
And 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
(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
Beauty and...
Beauty and the Beast
