My Way

And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt

I faced it all and I stood tall
I did all that and may have said nothing yet
I did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
"Oh, no, no, no, not me
I did it my way"
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of the one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way!
And did it my way!
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
And did it my way!
