Lyrics: A Good Heart

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 I have still so much to learn

I know
Cause I think about it all the time
I know
That real love is quite a vice

And a good heart these days is hard to find
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 it on my youth
Soon enough, I learned 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 every day
I know
Cause I listen when the experts say

A good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine

As I reflect on all my childhood dreams
My ideas of love weren't as foolish as they seem
If I don't start looking now, I'll be left behind
And a good heart these days, is so 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

A good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine

A good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine

A good heart, the lasting kind
It’s so hard to find
Please be gentle with this heart of mine
True love, the lasting kind
