| Music leadin | Gen - Kirk moving into big area |
| And now, the end is here | . | And so I face the final curtain | Gen - destroyed side of ship |
| My friend, I'll say it clear | Gen - lectures Picard as he walks up stairs |
| I'll state my case, of which I'm certain | . |
| I've lived | Cloudminders - looking at girl on bed |
| A life that's full | Wink - putting on boots |
| I traveled each | Turnabout - change from girl |
| And ev'ry highway | Mirror - walking with Spock |
| And more, much more than this, I did it my way | Gamesters - Kirk kisses, hits |
| Regrets, I've had a few | Undis - picture of David |
| But then again, too few to mention | Undis - shakes head as Klingon leaves |
| I did what I had to do | Undis - sees bird of prey, gives up |
| And saw it through without exemption | Undis - last look at Spock |
| I planned each charted course, | SfS - talking to admiral |
| Each careful step | SfS - tricks McCoy's guard |
| Along the byway | SfS - deep sigh as he's on bridge |
| And more, | SfS - Kirk over Sulu's shoulder |
| Much more than this, | SfS - Kirk collapses after David's death |
| I did it my way | SfS - blows up ship |
| Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew | FF - big bad guy shakes him |
| When I bit off more than I could chew | . |
| But through it all, when there was doubt | FF - backed into corner |
| I ate it up and spit it out | FF - kicks bad guy in the knees |
| I faced it all and I stood tall | FF - after fight |
| And did it my way | FF - hits guy who kissed him |
| I've loved, I've laughed | CITY - walking with Edit |
| And cried | CITY - after her death |
| I've had my fill | FF - reaches for Spock at end |
| My share of losing | WoK - Spock dies |
| And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing | Gen - smiles at Picard and rides away |
| To think I did all that | Voyage - turns to look at people applauding |
| And may I say, not in a shy way, | Gen - Kirk in glare of reporters |
| Oh, no, oh, no, not me, | Voy - Kirk in chair waves |
| I did it my way | Voy - Kirk waves, whales appear |
| For what is a man, what has he got? | FF - Kirk will keep his pain, thank you |
| If not himself, then he has naught | . |
| To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels | FF - stands up to god, who blasts him |
| The record shows I took the blows and did it! | Gen - extension falls |
| My way! | Gen - dies |
| Music bridge | Gen - Kirk WANTS to sit in commander's chair |
| Yes, it was my way | Gen - But he makes decision to go, happily |
