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

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

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 can fly higher

than an eagle

but you are the wind

beneath my wings

You are the wind

beneath my wings
