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
