Song Lyrics

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It must have been 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 the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain
A beautiful face without a name for so long
A beautiful smile to hide the pain

[Chorus]
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for 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, of course I know it
I would be nothing without you

[Chorus x2]

Oh, the wind beneath my wings
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings
