I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken almost all that I've got
And if you want, I'll try to love again
Baby, try to love again, but I know

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

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

I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears from my eyes
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, but I know

The first cut is the deepest
Honey, I know the first cut is the deepest
But when it comes to being lucky, I know
When it comes to being lucky, I know
When it comes to being lucky, I know
And that's how I know
The first cut is the deepest
Oh, don't you know the first cut is the deepest
Yes

Oh, the first cut is the deepest
Darling, don't you know, the first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know the first cut is the deepest
