It must have been cold there in my shadow
To never have sunlight in your face,
You were content 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,

And everything 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,
Yes I do,
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
You're everything I wish I could be?

'Cause you are the wind beneath my . . .

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
You're everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings (4x)
