ABOUT this song: My Way is a song with lyrics written by Paul Anka and popularized by Frank Sinatra. The melody is based on a French song Comme dhabitude composed by Claude François and Jacques Revaux. Ankas English lyrics are unrelated to the original French by Claude François and Gilles Thibaut and Anka is credited as a co-composer of My Way because he largely re-wrote the song. My Way is often quoted as the most remade song in history. LYRICS: And now, the end is near; And so I face the final curtain. My friend, Ill say it clear, Ill state my case, of which Im certain. Ive lived a life thats full. Ive traveled each and evry highway; But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Regrets, Ive had a few; But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course; Each careful step along the byway, But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Yes, there were times, Im 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. Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried. Ive 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, No, oh no not me, I did it my way. For what is a woman, what has she got? If not herself, then she has naught. To say the things she truly feels; And not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way.
