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 right 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
Your 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 wings
