And now, the end is near - And so I face the final curtain*

(* curtain/border of my shawl)


My friend, I'll say it clear,

I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.

(I have loved making this!)


I've lived a life that's full. (ish)
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. (and messaged Sarah)
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. 

(not really but didn't want to miss a verse)
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.(again not really)


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 (wom)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
(or didn't but had to use the last verse)

And did it myyyyyyy waaaaaaay!
