&quot;...I&#039;ve always been proud of you...&quot; James Ford (my dad)<br /> &ldquo;&hellip;And no matter what anybody said I had a dream and I had something that mattered to me. So that&rsquo;s really what got me through it all&hellip;&rdquo; Deborah Ann Woll<br /> Ever just the same<br /> Ever a surprise<br /> Ever as before<br /> Ever just as sure<br /> As the sun will rise.<br /> Tale as old as time<br /> Tune as old as song<br /> Bittersweet and strange<br /> Finding you can change<br /> Learning you were wrong.<br /> Certain as the sun<br /> Rising in the east<br /> Tale as old as time<br /> Song as old as rhyme<br /> Beauty and the Beast.
