A GOOD HEART
Feargal Sharkey


I hear a lot of stories, I suppose they could be true 
All about love and what it can do for you 
High is the 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 is hard to find 

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'll learn the painful truth 
I'll face it like a fighter then boast 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... 

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 od 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 

Well I know, it's a dream I'm willing to defend 
I know it will 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
