It must have been cold there, in my shadow

To never have sunlight on your face

You've been 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 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 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 to be

I could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings

You are the wind beneath my wings
