| It must have been cold there in my shadow
|
| To never have sunlight on your face
|
| You we’re content to let me shine
|
| That’s your way
|
| You always walked a step behind
|
| See, I was the one with all the glory
|
| While you we’re the one with all the strength (Yes you were)
|
| Only a face without a name
|
| I never once heard you complain, no
|
| Did you ever know that you’re my hero
|
| You’re everything I would like to be
|
| I could fly higher than an eagle
|
| 'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings (You are the wind beneath my wings)
|
| It might have appeared to go unnoticed
|
| But daddy, daddy, daddy I’ve got it all
|
| Right here in my heart (In my heart) yes I do say
|
| And I want you to know, I know the truth
|
| I know you know the truth about it (I know you know the truth about it)
|
| I would be nothing (Nothing), nothing without you, you (Nothing without you)
|
| Did you ever know that you’re my hero, yeah yeah
|
| You’re everything I would like to be
|
| You’re a part of me, you’re a part of me
|
| I could fly higher than an eagle
|
| 'Cause you are the wind beneath the old man’s wings (You are the wind beneath)
|
| One more time, one more time
|
| You are the wind beneath my wings, my wings
|
| Ah, see daddy I remember you we’re on the stage,
|
| Singing your song, singing your song, now
|
| That’s why I used to take you and your brothers on the road
|
| I used to, I used to carry, I used to carry y’all along
|
| But now I’m proud we can stand up here and sing it together now, hey yeah
|
| It’s so good to see your dreams come true
|
| Right here and right now, right now
|
| It might have appeared to go unnoticed, unnoticed (No, it didn’t daddy)
|
| But, son I’ve got it all right here,
|
| In my arms, in my arms, (In my heart) in my heart
|
| I want you to know that I know the truth
|
| Yes, I do, yes I do
|
| I would be nothing daddy
|
| Nothing, zero, zero without you, without you, yeah yeah yeah
|
| Did you ever know that you’re my hero
|
| If you didn’t, I’m telling you now daddy, daddy
|
| You’re everything I would like to be
|
| My son, my son, you’re a part of me
|
| I could fly higher than an eagle, yeah yeah yeah
|
| 'Cause you are the wind beneath your daddy’s wings (You are the wind beneath
|
| the wings)
|
| You are the wind beneath your little son’s wings, wings |
