THE FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST
(Cat Stevens)

I would have given you all of my heart 
but there's someone who's torn it apart 
and she's taking almost all that I've got 
but 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, baby I know 
The first cut is the deepest 
'cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed 
when it comes to lovin' me she's worse 
but when it comes to being loved she's first 
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 that I've cried 
cause I'm sure gonna give you a try 
and if you want, I'll try to love again 
but baby, I'll try to love again, but I know 

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

'Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed 
when it comes to lovin' me she's worse 
but when it comes to being loved she's first 
that's how I know 

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