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, and I never once heard you complain
Did you ever know that you're my hero, and everything I'd like to be
I could 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 could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings
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, and I never once heard you complain
Did you ever know that you're my hero, and everything I'd like to be
I could 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 could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings
