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 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
