[Verse 1]
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I had
But if you want, I'll try to love again

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know

[Chorus]
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
When it come to making love, she's worse
When it come to making love, she's worse

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know

[Chorus]
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
When it come to making love, she's worse
When it come to making love, she's worse
Ah yeah!
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she taken almost all that I had
But if you wanna try to love again

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know

[Chorus]
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know, the first cut is the deepest
The first cut is the deepest
Ah yeah!
Ah yeah!
