Wind
Beneath My Wings
by Bette
Midler
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. |
