[Intro]
Mmmm

[Verse 1]
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

[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

[Verse 2]
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]
Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be
Oh, I could fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings

[Outro]
Thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings
