It must have been colder in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You were content to lend me shine
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 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
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?
You're everything I wish I could be
I could fly higher than an eagle
If you are the wind beneath my wings
Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're my everything, everything I wished I could be
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle
If you, you are the wind beneath my wings
Oh, beneath my wings
