My Way

By : Frank Sinatra

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 exemption

I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
Oh 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
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..
