It must have cold there in my shadow, to never have sunlight on your face. You were content to let me shine, that's your way, you always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all glory, while you were one with all the strength. A beautiful face without a name -- for so long, a beautiful smile hide the pain.
Chorus Did you ever know that you're my hero, and ev'rything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed, but I've got it all here in my I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it, I would be nothing with out you.
Did you ever know you're my hero, and ev'rything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, away, you let me fly so high. Oh, fly, fly, so high against the sky, so high I almost touch sky. Thank you, thank you, thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.
