Wind Beneath My Wings
~Bette Midler~
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 the strength.
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 ev'rything
I would 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, of course I know it,
I would be
nothing with out you.
Fly, fly,
fly away,
you let me
fly so high.
Oh, 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.
