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
A beautiful smile to hide the pain

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I'd like to be
And I could fly higher than an eagle
For 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 nothing without you

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I'd like be
And I could fly higher than an eagle
Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

Did I ever tell you you're my hero
And everything I'd like to be
And I could fly higher than an eagle
Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings
