Was the line “Maybe he’s right, maybe there is something the matter with me” that Ariel says before she starts singing Part of Your World on the soundtrack cut from the final draft of the movie?
I always thought that it had been replaced by “If only I could make him understand... I just don't see things the way he does...” but I really don’t know.
Does anybody have any insight into this?

Maybe they took the line out because they thought it didn’t really fit Ariel’s spirit (it’s just my guess, I would like to know more).
I think it’s a very intriguing line and, as a child, I never really cared about that, but now, that layer of complexity in the character’s thought process would’ve been a welcomed bonus.

It's most likely an alternate take. They record these songs more than once, and go with what's better. Sometimes they even record a version to mix exactly for the soundtrack. They probably thought this version mixed better for the tape. It's also likely this was the original line, and they replaced it down the road, but it still wound up on the OST. That's not unusual since the soundtrack would probably be locked down for production before the film was done. A lot of the OST isn't 100% the same takes as what made it in the film. Under the Sea in particular always seems to have a more robust steel drum in the film cut to me.

Thank you for the information, Arielholic! That cut line intrigues me, but I'm glad the soundtrack kept it in.

I'm currently watching The Little Mermaid with the subtitles on and the line "Maybe he's right, maybe there is something the matter with me." is not in the final film. It is on the soundtrack, tho.
