Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And he's takin' just all that I had
But if you wanna
Try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know
[Verse 2]
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
And when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me, he'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 wanna
Try to love again
Try
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know
[Verse 4]
Oh
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
And when it comes to bein' lucky he's cursed
And when it comes to loving me, he's worst
Oh
[Verse 5]
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 wanna
Try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know
[Verse 6]
Oh
The first cut is the deepest
Baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
And when it comes to bein' lucky, he's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me, he's worst
[Verse 7]
Oh
The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know
The first cut is the deepest
And I'll try to love again
