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.
