My Way
And now, the end is nearAnd so I face the final curtainMy friend, I'll say it clearI'll state my case, of which I'm certainI've lived a life that's fullI've traveled each and every highwayBut more, much more than thisI did it my wayRegrets, I've had a fewBut then again, too few to mentionI did what I had to doAnd saw it through without exemptionI planned each charted courseEach careful step along the bywayBut more, much more than thisI did it my wayYes, there were times, I'm sure you knewWhen I bit off more than I could chewBut through it all, when there was doubtI ate it up and spit it outI faced it all and I stood tallAnd did it my waySongtexteI've loved, I've laughed and criedI've had my fill my share of losingAnd now, as tears subsideI find it all so amusingTo think I did all thatAnd may I say - not in a shy wayNo, oh no not meI did it my wayFor what is a man, what has he gotIf not himself, then he has naughtTo say the things he truly feelsAnd not the words of one who kneelsThe record shows I took the blows And did it my way Aus Songtexte Mania
