I hear a lot of stories
I suppose they could be true
All about love and what it can do to you
Highest risk of striking out
The risk of getting hurt
And still I have so much to learn
Well, I know
'Cause I think about it all the time
I know that real love has quite a price
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 it on my youth
Soon enough, I'd learned the painful truth
I'll face it like a fighter, then boast of how I've grown
Anything is better than being alone
Well, I know
'Cause I learn a little every day
I know
'Cause I listen when the experts say that
That 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
Yeah
As I look back 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 it's 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
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
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
With this heart of mine (of mine)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (a good heart)
Ah, baby, baby (a good heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (a good heart)
Ah, ah, ah-ah (a good heart)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) keep it up, keep it up, keep it up
(A good heart)
Ooh, baby, baby (a good heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (a good heart)
