[Angela Lansbury]
When Howard Ashman and Alan Menken first sent me the demo tape of Alan singing the title song, "Beauty and the Beast," I thought to myself, "My goodness, can I ever do this beautiful lyric justice?"
But, when Disney showed me the drawings for the snuggly, beaming, little Mrs. Potts, I said to myself, "I knew this kind of little [?] lady when I was growing up in London."
And from that memory is exactly where I found her voice
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
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time (Tale as old as time)
Tune as old as song (Tune as old as song)
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
