Maybe it scares you   maybe it makes you cry   Maybe it reminds you of all that you deny   To see the good   you never would   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   Walk down the street   and I turn my blind eye   Don't want to meet   the parts of myself I might find   To see the good   you never would   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   So Venus tries   to sympathize   We make her look so good   As kind is to cruel   as bitter is to sweet   This life has a rule   that the two must somehow meet   To see the good   you never would   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   Without the ugly   there is no beautiful   Words By Melanie Doane   Music By Melanie Doane And Rick Neigher   (P) 1998 Sony Music Entertainment (Canada) Inc.
