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
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 I would be nothing without you
Did you ever know that you're my hero You're everything I wish I could be I could fly higher than an eagle for you are the wind beneath my wings
Did I ever tell you you're my hero You're everything, everything I wish I could be Oh, and I, I could fly high
