The First Cut Is the Deepest Lyrics

[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 being lucky, she's cursed

When it come to loving me, she's worst

[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

And when it come to being lucky, she's cursed

When it come to loving me, she's worst

[Verse 3]

I still want you by my side

Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried

But I'm sure gonna give you a try

'Cause 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 being lucky, she's cursed

When it come to loving me, she's worst
