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 by way
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 ate it up and spit it out
And 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
Oh 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
And it is my way.
