Lou Rawls - The Wind Beneath My Wings lyrics

You know. It must have been cold standing there in my shadow You never had the sunlight on your face To know you were content to let me shine Why you walked a few steps behind And I was the one with all the glory While you were the one behind me with all that strength Just a face without a name I never heard you once complain Did you ever know that you are 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 right here in my heart I want you to know that I know the truth I would be nothing without you Did you ever know that you are my hero? You're everything that I would like to be I could fly higher, higher than an eagle I said you are the wind beneath my wings Did you ever know that you are my hero? You're everything that I would like to be! I tell ya, I could fly higher, higher than an eagle I said you are the wind beneath my wings My wings
