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,
I never once heard you complain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
And everything I would like to be?
Well, I can fly higher than an eagle,
But 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 the truth,
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
And everything I would like to be?
Well, I can fly higher than an eagle,
But you are the wind beneath my wings.

You are the wind beneath my wings.
