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'd like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
Ã,Â'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 nothin' 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,
Ã,Â'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings,

You are the wind beneath my wings!
