It must've been cold there in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You've always been content to let me shine
You've 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.
Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I'd like to be
I could fly higher than an eagle
‘Cause you're the wind beneath my wings.
It may have appeared to go unnoticed
That I've got it all here in my heart
I want you to know the truth
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero
You're everything I wish I could be
And I could fly higher than an eagle
‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
