The First Cut Is The Deepest

I really love the poetry of this song.

According to Wikipedia;

"The First Cut Is the Deepest" is a 1967 song written and sung by Cat Stevens, which originally appeared on his album New Masters in 1967. It has been widely covered and has become a hit single for four different artists: P.P. Arnold (1967), Keith Hampshire (1973), Rod Stewart (1977) and Sheryl Crow (2003).

I would've given you all of my heart
But there is someone who has torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I have
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.

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 worst
But when it comes to being loved, she's first
That's how 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
And I'm sure gonna give you a try… just remember
The first cut is the deepest.
