are you cooking them separate from the sauce that can make them hard. I follow this recipe:
mix meat with one egg per lb and use
1/2c. bread crumbs,
1/3c.Parmesan cheese,
1tbs oregano,
tiny bit of1/2 tsp rosemary and garlic.
roll them into 1inch balls and cook them on low medium in a nonstick pan. to turn them just shake the pan. after 8Min's they should be brown but not in the middle then you drain then put them in your sauce.then cook the sauce for 45 min on low!

My aunt makes the best meatballs ever. She takes a few slices of bread, removes the crusts, then soaks the bread in a little bit of water, and mixes that into the meatball mixture. Really softens it up.

Do you use breadcrumbs? If so, don't use quite so many breadcrumbs, or soak the breadcrumbs first in a little bit of milk or water. Or, you can use an egg and a teaspoon of water, which would add more moisture.

Yeah, wet bread and mix it in with the ground meat and other ingredients. Also, don't cook at too high of a temperature and don't bake uncovered if you don't like the outside crunchy.

I know eggs holds them together but I don't know that they make them soft. Are you possibly over cooking them?
