I hear a lot of stories, I suppose they could be true All about love and what it can do to you High is the risk of striking out, the risk of getting hurt And still I have so much to learn I know, 'cause I think about it all the time I know that real love is quite a price CHORUS: And a good heart these days is hard to find A good heart - True love, the lasting kind A good heart these days is hard to find So please be gentle with this heart of mine My expectations may be high, I blame that on my youth Soon enough I'll learn the painful truth I'll face it like a fighter then boast of how I've grown Anything is better than being alone I know 'cause I learn a little everyday I know 'cause I listen when the experts say CHORUS As I reflect on all my childhood dreams My ideas of love weren't as foolish as they seemed If I don't start looking now, I'll be left behind And a good heart these days is hard to find I know it's a dream I'm willing to defend I know it will all be worth it in the end CHORUS x 2 With this heart of mine
