It must have been cold there in my shadow To never have sunlight on your face You've been contented to let me shine You always walked a step behind I was the one with all the glory While you were the one with all the strength Only a face without a name I never once heard you complain But did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle 'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings It might have appeared to go unnoticed But I've got it all here in my heart I want you to know I know the truth I would be nothin' without you Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle 'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle 'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings You are the wind beneath my wings You are the wind beneath my wings
