Michael Ball Wind Beneath My Wings lyrics

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
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 that I'd like to be?
And 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 heart
I want you to know, I know the truth, of course, I know it

I would be nothing without you, oh

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything that I'd like to be?
And I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings

Did you ever know that you're my hero
You're everything, everything that I'd like to be?
And I, oh, I can fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings

You, you, you, oh thank God for you
Wind beneath my wings
