Wind Beneath My Wings

Ohhhh,
oh, oh, oh, ohhh.
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, of course I know it.
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 higher than an eagle,
for you
are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause
you are the wind beneath my wings.
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.
