Feargal Sharkey Lyrics

I hear a lot of stories, I suppose they could be true
I have heard many stories about love and its effects, but I am uncertain if they are genuine.

All about love and what it can do for you
These stories are centered around love and the benefits it can bring to your life.

High is the risk of striking out, the risk of getting hurt
Being in love is a dangerous game and there is always a possibility of rejection and heartbreak.

And still I have so much to learn
Despite the risks, I acknowledge that there is much to learn about love and its complexities.

Well I know 'cause I think about it all the time
I am constantly reflecting on the subject of love and the difficulties that come with it.

I know that real love is hard to find
I understand that finding genuine love is not an easy journey.

And a good heart these days is hard to find
In modern society, it is increasingly difficult to find individuals with pure and sincere intentions.

True love, the lasting kind
I am seeking genuine love that will last long-term and not just a temporary infatuation.

So please be gentle with this heart of mine
I am vulnerable in my pursuit of love and would appreciate if others treat my heart with care and consideration.

My expectations may be high, I blame it on my youth
My high expectations for love may be attributed to my naivety and lack of experience in the matter.

Soon enough I'll learn the painful truth
I anticipate a difficult reality of love and the harsh lessons that come with it.

I'll face it like a fighter then boast how I've grown
Despite the hardships, I will confront them head-on and take pride in my growth and perseverance.

Anything is better than being alone
I would rather experience the challenges of love and its potential heartbreak than be alone.

I know 'cause I learn a little every day
Every day, I gain more knowledge and understanding about love and relationships.

I know 'cause I listen when the experts say that
I am open to advice and guidance from experts in the field of love and relationships.

As I reflect on all my childhood dreams
Looking back at my childhood, I consider the romantic ideals and expectations that I once had.

My ideas of love weren't as foolish as they seemed
Upon reflection, I realize that my youthful ideas of love were not as illogical as I once believed.

If I don't start looking now I'll be left behind
If I do not actively seek out love, I fear that I will be left out and destined to face life alone.

And a good heart these days, it's hard to find
In contemporary society, it is difficult to find individuals with genuine intentions and sincere hearts.

I know, it's a dream I'm willing to defend
I recognize that my desire for true love may seem unrealistic, but it is a dream that I am willing to stand up for.

I know it will be worth it in the end
I believe that the journey for genuine love will ultimately be worthwhile.

With this heart of mine, I find it hard
Despite my desire for love, I acknowledge the hardships and challenges that come with it.

I find it hard (baby, baby), I find it hard
I struggle with the difficulties and emotional toll of searching for and navigating romantic relationships.

I find it hard, I find it hard
The pursuit of genuine love is not an easy road and I struggle with its difficulties.
