This reprise of “How Does a Moment Last Forever” is sung by Belle when the Beast takes her to her childhood home in Montmartre, the highest part of Paris. The song is Belle’s reaction to visiting a painful part of her family history, which her father does not like to talk about.
[BELLE]
This is the Paris of my childhood
These were the borders of my life
In this crumbling, dusty attic
Where an artist loved his wife
Easy to remember, harder to move on
Knowing the Paris of my childhood is gone
