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 strain
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
but I've got it all here
in my heart
I want you to know
know the truth
of course I know it
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
cause you are the wind beneath
my wings
Did I ever tell you
you're my hero
You're everything
I wish I could be
Oh and I
I could fly higher than an eagle
cause you are the wind beneath
my wings
cause you are the wind beneath
my wings
