Lyrics
You're not a stranger to me
And you are something to see
You don't even know how to please
You say a lot...but you're unaware how to leave
My darling lives in a world that is not mine
An old child misunderstood...out of time
Timeless is the creature who is wise
And timeless is the prisoner in disguise
Oh who is the beauty...who the beast
Would you die of grieving when I leave
Two children too blind to see
I would fall in your shadow...I believe
My love is a man who's not been tamed
Oh...my love lives in a world of false pleasure and pain
We come from difference worlds...we are the same (my love)
I never doubted your beauty...I've changed
I never doubted your beauty...I've changed
Changed...who is the beauty
Where is my beast (my love)
There is no beauty
Without my beast (my love)
Who is the beauty
Who... (my love)
Ahhh...
Oh...la bete...la bete
Where is my beast
My beauty...my beauty
My beautiful...beautiful...beautiful
Beautiful beast
