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 strain

Always a face without a name

I never once heard you complain.



Did you ever know that you were my hero

And everything I would like to be

I can fly higher than an eagle

'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.



--- Instrumental ---



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 were my hero

Everything I would like be

I could fly higher than an eagle

'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.



You are the wind beneath my wings...
