My Way Songtext
von Paul Anka

And now the end is near
So I face the final curtain
My friends, I′ll say it clear
And 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, 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

And I planned each charted course
Each careful step along life′s byway
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 loved, I laughed, I cried
Had my filled my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
Just 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

To say the things he trully feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my, my way
