And now the end is here
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 traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more much more than this I did it my way
Regret 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
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 y 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, 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!
Yes, it was my way...

My favorite song ever... 'My Way' by Frank Sinatra
Sweet memories cherish forever.
