Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

[Chorus: John Legend]
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared

[Ariana Grande & John Legend]
Beauty and the Beast

[Bridge: Ariana Grande & John Legend]
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

[Verse 2: Ariana Grande & John Legend]
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bitter-sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

[Chorus: Ariana Grande & John Legend + Together]
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

[Verse 3: Ariana Grande & John Legend]
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

(Beauty and the)
