did bleeding the brakes work for you?
someone suggested replacing the brake lines as the rubber can get spongy
it was suggested that they be replaced with the steel mesh re-enforced version
Bleeding the brakes is easy and cheap - just do it.
If that does not do the job, then you can look at other issues, like replacing brake lines - but IMO, there is no reason to go to the re-enforced lines, just replacing old lines should do it.
THis reminds me, in the new year, I think it's time for brake lines and hoses on my car. Fifteen years is enough.
