You have more than one, dear heart! (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ear

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'you' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'have more than one dear heart' is the wordplay.
'have' becomes 'ar' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'more than' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'one dear' becomes 'sweetie' (both are terms of endearment).
'heart' says to take the centre.
The middle of 'sweetie' is 'e'.
'ar' after 'e' is 'EAR'.
