Songtexte My Way (Live) - Cliff Richard

And now the end is near
And I must face the final curtain
My friends, 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 travelled each and every highway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, far too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And I saw it through without exemption

I planned each charted course
Each unknown step along the byway
But 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 I spat it out
And through it all I stood so tall
And did it my way

I've loved and I've laughed and I've cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think that I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh no no, oh no, not me
I did it my way

For what is a man
What has he got
If not himself then he cannot
Say the things he truly feels
Not the words of one who leads
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
