The Beauty and the Beast

Histoire éternelle
Qu'on ne croit jamais
De deux inconnus
Qu'un geste imprévu
Rapproche en secret

Et soudain se pose
Sur leurs coeurs en fête
Un papillon rose
Un rien pas grand chose
Une fleur offerte

Rien ne se ressemble
Rien n'est plus pareil
Mais comment savoir
La peur envolée
Que l'on s'est trompé

Chanson éternelle
Au refrain fané
C'est vrai c'est étrange
De voir comme l'on change
Sans même y penser

Tout comme les étoiles
S'était mise en cachette
L'histoire éternelle
Touche de son aile
La Belle et la Bête

L'histoire éternelle
Touche de son aile
La Belle et la Bête




Beauty and the Beast
(Nightwish)


Remember the first dance we shared?
Recall the night you melted my ugliness away?
The night you left with a kiss so kind
Only a scent of beauty left behind

Ah dear friend I remember the night
The moon and the dreams we shared
Your trembling paw in my hand
Dreaming of that northern land
Touching me with a kiss of a beast

I know my dreams are made of you
Of you and only for you
Your ocean pulls me under
Your voice tears me asunder
Love me before the last petal falls

As a world without a glance
Of the ocean's fair expanse
Such the world would be
If no love did flow in thee
But as my heart is occupied
Your love for me now has to die
Forgive me I need more than you can offer me

Didn't you read the tale
Where happily ever after was to kiss a frog?
Don't you know this tale
In which all I ever wanted
I'll never have
For who could ever learn to love a beast?

However cold the wind and rain
I'll be there to ease your pain
However cruel the mirrors of sin
Remember beauty is found within

...Forever shall the wolf in me desire the sheep in you...
