It must have been cold there in my shadow

To never have sunlight on your face

You were content to let me shine

You always walked a step behind

I was the one with all the glory

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'd 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, 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 can fly higher than an eagle

'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

Did you ever know that you're my hero

And everything I'd like to be?

I can fly higher than an eagle

'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

You are the wind beneath my wing
