How Does a Moment Last Forever

"How Does A Moment Last Forever" is an upcoming song from the 2017 remake of Beauty and the Beast. It will be sung by Belle's father as he completes a music box, and will basically be about how previous moments live on. It will later be reprise by Belle and will then be performed during the end credits at the end of the movie.

Lyrics
How does a moment last forever? How can a story never die? It is love we must hold on to, Never easy but we try,

Sometimes our happiness is captured, Somehow a time and place stand still, Love lives on inside our hearts, And always will,

Minutes turn to hours, Days to years stand gone, But when all else has been forgotten, Still our song lives on,

Maybe some moments weren't so perfect, Maybe some memories not so sweet, But we have to remember bad times, Or our lives are incomplete,

Then when the shadows overtake us, Just when we feel our hope is gone, We'll hear our song and know once more, Our love lives on,

How does a moment last forever? How does our happiness endure? Through the darkest of our troubles, Love is beauty, love is pure,

Love pays no mind to desolation, It flows like a river through the soul, Protects, perceives and burst through years, And makes us whole,

Minutes turn to hours, Days to years stand gone, But when all else has been forgotten, Still our song lives on,

How does a moment last forever? When our song lives on.
