It must have been cold there in my shadow,
|
To never have sunlight on your face.
|
You were 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.
|
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,
|
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.
