Lyrics My Way - Herman Brood

And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friends, I say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've loved a life that's full
I've travelled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way

Regrets, I had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what, what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each chattered course
Each careful stap along the highway
And more, much more than that
I did it my way

Yes, there were times
I'm sure you knew
When I bit more off then I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spitt 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 than he has naught
To say the words he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows, I took the blows and did it my way

Oh no, oh no not me
I did it my way
