| 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 |
