[Belle:]
There's something sweet
And almost kind
But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined
But now he's dear, and so unsure
I wonder why I didn't see it there before
[Mme. De La Grande Bouche:]
Come along dearie.
Let's get you off those wet things.
[Beast:]
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
[Beast:]
Belle, I have something to show you.
But first, you have to close your eyes. It's a surprise!
[Belle:]
May I open them?
[Beast:]
Alright, alright. Now!
[Belle:]
I can't believe it!
I've never seen so many books in my whole life!
[Beast:]
You like it?
[Belle:]
It's wonderful!
[Beast:]
It's yours!
[Belle:]
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
[Belle:]
Oh, this is one of my favorites!
It's "King Arthur."
Have you ever read it?
[Beast:]
No.
[Belle:]
You don't know what you're missing.
I would love to read this again.
Wait... you can read this first.
[Beast:]
No, that's alright.
[Belle:]
No, really, you read it.
[Beast:]
Oh, No, you...
[Belle:]
No, you.
[Beast:]
No! I can't...
[Belle:]
You never learn to read?
[Beast:]
Only a little, and long ago.
[Belle:]
Well, it just so happens that this is the perfect book to read aloud.
Come here, sit by me
[Lumiere:]
Well, who'd have thought?
[Mrs Potts:]
Well, bless my soul
[Cogsworth:]
Well, who'd have known?
[Mrs Potts:]
Well, who indeed?
[Lumiere:]
And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?
[Mrs Potts:]
It's so peculiar. Wait and see
[Lumiere and Cogsworth:]
We'll wait and see
[All three:]
A few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before
[Cogsworth:]
Perhaps there's something there
That wasn't there before
[Chip:]
What?
[Mrs Potts:]
There may be something there that wasn't there before
[Chip:]
What's there, Mama?
[Mrs Potts:]
Ssh. I'll tell you when you're older.
Come along now. Let's give them some privacy...
[Chip:]
Mama?
[Mrs Potts:]
Yes, Chip?
[Chip:]
Will I ever get to be a boy again?
[Mrs Potts:]
I hope so.
[Chip:]
When will I know?
[Mrs Potts:]
Soon. If it's to be. It will be very soon now.
Come along, son.
[Belle:]
Knowing now, that this was indeed the legendary sword called "Excalibur," Arthur tried to pull it from the stone.
He tried once to no avail.
He tried a second time, but still, he could not pull it out.
Then, for the third time, Arthur drew forth the sword...
[Beast:]
So that must mean he's the king!
[Belle:]
Wait and see.
[Beast:]
I never knew books could do that.
[Belle:]
Do what?
[Beast:]
Take me away from this place,
make me... forget for a little while.
[Belle:]
Forget?
[Beast:]
Who I... What I am...
[Belle:]
We have something in common, you know.
[Beast:]
What is that?
[Belle:]
In the town where I come from, the people think I'm odd.
[Beast:]
You?
[Belle:]
So, I know how it feels to be... Different.
And I know how lonely that can be.
[Belle:]
For the third time, Arthur drew forth the sword,
and there arose from the people a great shout.
Arthur is king.
[Beast:]
I told you so...
