my way

Lyrics

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've lived a life that's full, i've traveled each and every highway, and more, much more than this, i did it my way, regrets, i've had a few, but then again, too few to mention, i did what i had to do, and saw it through without exemption, i planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway, but 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 ate it up and spit it out, i faced it all and i stood tall, and 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, "no, oh 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 one who kneels, the record shows i took the blows, and did it my way
