A Change in Me is a song written for Belle in Beauty and the Beast The Musical. Originally written for Toni Braxton when she took on the role, the song was such a huge hit it has been in included in all the productions since. The song was also included in Disney's Juxebox Roadshow On The Record where is was preformed by then newcomer, Ashley Brown (who would later go on to become the 15th Belle on Broadway and create the role of Mary Poppins for Broadway Stage). The coda of the song was changed to make it bigger. It now ends with belted notes and a grander orchestration. When Brown took over the Role of Belle in 2005, they replaced the Braxton version with the Brown one. It is the Ashley Brown one that remained in all future preformances of the show.

Lyrics

There's been a change in me

A kind of moving on

Though what I used to be

I still depend one

For now I realize

That good can come from bad

That may not make me wise

But oh it makes me glad

And I-- I never thought I'd leave behind

My childhood dreams

But I don't mind

For now I love the world I see

No change of heart a change in me

For in my dark despair

I slowly understood

My perfect world out there

Had disappeared for good

But in its place I feel

A truer life begin

And it's so good and real

It must come from within

And I-- I never thought I'd leave behind

My childhood dreams but I don't mind

I'm where and who I want to be

No change of heart

A change in me

No change of heart

A change in me
