I would have given you all of my heart
But somebody else has torn it apart
And they've taken almost all that I've got
But if you want, I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again 'cause I know

The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know, first cut is the deepest

When it comes to being lucky, she's first
When it comes to loving me, she's worst
But when it comes to being loved, she's first
That's how I know

First cut is the deepest
Baby I know, first cut is the deepest

I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears, that I've cried
And I'm sure, gonna give you a try
And if you want, I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again 'cause I know

The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know, first cut is the deepest
When it comes to being lucky, she's first
When it comes to loving me, she's worst
But when it comes to being loved, she's first
That's how I know

First cut is the deepest
Baby I know, first cut is the deepest
Baby I know, yeah
