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
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 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 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
With this heart of mine
I find it hard
(baby, baby)
I find it hard
I find it hard
I find it hard
I find it hard (baby, baby)
I find it hard
I find it hard
