Honey’s “theme song” … Frank Sinatra’s 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 traveled each and every highway
And 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 highway
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 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.

 

Godspeed, my lovely miracle girl,
Honey April
