To never have sunlight on your face

You were content to let 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 strain

A beautiful face without a name

A beautiful smile to hide the pain.



Chorus:

Did you ever know that you're my hero

And everything I would like to be

I can fly higher than an eagle

For 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



Chorus:

Did you ever know that you're my hero

And everything I wish I could be

I can fly higher than an eagle

For you are the wind beneath my wings



Did I ever tell you you're my hero

You're everything I wish I could be

I can fly higher than an eagle

You are the wind beneath my wings.



You are the wind beneath my wings
