Lyrics
'A Good Heart'
One by one they come on in and bring a little piece of their heart to you
And one by one you help them all, make them whole and catch their fall
It's what you do
You've seen their hopes, their world fall down, picked them up and turned them round
They needed you
And they will find their place in life, comfort by the fireside
Dreams can come true
And you give your heart so true
And you give your life, it's what you do
And when they're fading and falling away
Someone like you feels their pain
And each one needs love every day
And a good heart like yours knows the way
Loving faces, wagging tails, work and worries every day, they need you so
In your mind you cannot stop, there's more to do, can't stop the clock
And on you go
A comfort here, a cuddle there, a space to find a little prayer, a happy home
Some may need a quiet word, a gentle hand, they will be heard
They're not alone
And you give your heart so true
And you give your life, it's what you do
And when they're fading and falling away
Someone like you feels their pain
And each one needs love every day
And a good heart like yours knows the way
And a good heart like yours knows the way
And a good heart like yours knows the way
