Wind Beneath My Wings (Willie Nelson) 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 Only a face without a name I never once heard you complain Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle But you are the wind beneath my wings It might have appeared to go unnoticed I've got it all here in my heart I want you to know I know the truth I would be nothing without you Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle But you are the wind beneath my wings You are the wind beneath my wings
