Little Bit Of Me

Melanie Safka


Balanced on the mountain 
With the people all around 
Who say that I've been up too long 
And they want to bring me down 
Well I wouldn't mind the falling...no 
It's the ones who come to see 
If all I've got left inside 
Is a little bit of me 

Won't you hold my hand now 
Hold my hand tight 
Hold lightly in the day 
And hold harder at night 
Well I don't mind the coming down 
It's the way it's got to be 
What I hope I got left inside 
Is a little bit of me 

Now when it is all over 
And I become a seed 
They'll plant me in the universe 
Where the balance gotta be 
Now I don't mind the dyin', no. 
It's the way it's got to be 
But I hope I leave behind 
Just a little bit of me 
A little bit of me 

Balanced on my mountain 
With the people all around 
Who say that I've been up too long 
And they want to bring me down 
I don't mind the coming down 
It's the way it's gotta be 
What I hope I got left inside 
Is a little bit of me 

Hope I got something left for me 
Hope I got something left for me 
Hope I got something left for me
