According To The My Way Songfacts This Originated As French Song Called Comme D'habitude Translation "As Usual" By Claude Francois . The French Version Tells The Story Of A Man Living The End Of His Marriage Love Killed By The Boredom Of Everyday Life. Paul Anka Discovered This Song While Visiting France And Re-Wrote The Lyrics As "My Way." Upon Returning To The US He Gave It To Frank Sinatra And It Became One Of His Signature Songs.
