It must have been cold there in my shadow, To never have sunlight on your face. You were content to let me shine, thats 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 strain. A beautiful face without a name for so long. A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that youre my hero, And everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, For you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed, But Ive 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 without you.
Did you ever know that youre my hero? Youre everything I wish I could be. I could fly higher than an eagle, For you are the wind beneath my wings.
Did I ever tell you youre my hero? Youre everything, everything I wish I could be. Oh, and i, I could fly higher than an eagle, For you are the wind beneath my wings, cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
