(Intro.)
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 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 chartered 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 Icould 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.
(Interlude)
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 girl
what has she got,
If not herself,
then she has naught
To say all the things
she truely feels,
And not the words
of one who kneels.
The record shows
I took the blows,
And did it My Way.
