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 byway
|
Oh, 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
|
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, oh 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 things he truly feels
|
And not the words of one who kneels
|
The record shows I took the blows
|
And did it my way
|
Yes, it was my way
|
|
