It must have been cold there in my shadow To never have sunlight on your face You were content to let me shine, that's your way You always walked a step behind So I was the one with all the glory While you were the one with all this drain A beautiful face without a name for so long A beautiful smile to hide the pain Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I would like to be I can fly higher than an eagle 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 Of course I know I would be nothing without you Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I would like to be I can fly higher than an eagle You are the wind beneath my wings Did I ever tell you you're my hero You're everything, everything I wish I could be And I, I can fly higher than an eagle You are the wind beneath my wings Cause you are the wind beneath my wings Oh the wind beneath my wings You, you, you are the wind beneath my wings Fly, fly, fly away You let me fly so high Oh you, you, you're the wind beneath my wings Oh you, you, you're the wind beneath my wings Fly, fly so high against the sky So high I almost touch the sky Thank you, thank you, thank God for you The wind beneath my wings
