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 strain
A beautiful face without a name
A beautiful smile to ease my pain
Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I would like to be
I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings
I ke i'a po ke i'a au me o'e
Ke i'a po ua ho'i ma i au
He loa ka helena ma ke a la hele
E huli wahi ma ke i'a au
Mau popo au ua i ke ho'i
Ka home iloko ku'u pu'u wai
U'a ho'i mai i'au ke i ke nei au
Ma oli au au ana hou
Ke mau popo He Hawai'i au
Ke mau popo He Hawai'i au
You are the wind beneath my wings
Ooo ooo oo oo oo
You are the wind beneath my wings
Ke mau popo He Hawai'i au
