Fergal Sharkey - A Good Heart Lyrics

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
