MY WAY
And now the end is near 
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 exception 

I planned each charted course 
Each careful step along the by way 
And more, much more than this 
I did it my way 

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you know 
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 fails, 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 not me 
I did it my way 

For what is a man, what has he got 
If not himself, then he has not 
To say the words he truly feels 
And not the words he would reveal 
The record shows I took the blows 
And did it my way 

Yes! it is my way...
