And now, now I need the place to hide  away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Oh no, I don’t believe in yesterday
Oh no,Oh no not me
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 by way
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 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, and yesterday, came suddenly
I’m not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why he had to go I don't know he wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll stay 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 every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
