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
|
|
See, 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, 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
|
|
It might have appeared to go unnoticed
|
But daddy, daddy, daddy I've got it all
|
Right here 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 would be nothing, nothing without you, you
|
|
Did you ever know that you're my hero
|
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 my wings, my wings
|
|
See, daddy I remember you were
|
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 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
|
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
|
|
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
|
Cause you are the wind beneath your daddy's wings
|
You are the wind beneath your little son's wings, wings
|
