The Wind Beneath My Wings

the wind beneath my wings

-kenny rogers

it must have been cold there in my shadow,

to never have sunlight on your face.

you were 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

i never once heard you complain

did you ever know that you're my hero,

and ev'rything i would like to be?

i can fly higher than an eagle,

'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

(------ music ------)

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 with out you.

did you ever know that you're my hero,

and ev'rything i would like to be?

i can fly higher than an eagle,

'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
