These lyrics of the song 'My Way' by Frank Sinatra are always an inspiration to me. And of course, the rendition of this song by him is awe inspiring. It is undoubtedly my most favorite Sinatra song, because it is so much more than a song... it is a statement of life! Sinatra sings it like only he can, displaying his full range of vocals.
Read on..and be inspired!

My Way

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, 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 traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But more, much more than this,I did it 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 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, 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'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,
"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 naught.
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!

If I can say all that with honesty at the end of my life, then it will be my greatest triumph!!
