Lyrics
[Idina Menzel]

It must have been colder in my shadow To never have sunlight on your face You were content to lend me shine You always walked a step behind

So 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 'Cause 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? You're everything I wish I could be I could fly higher than an eagle If you are the wind beneath my wings

Did I ever tell you you're my hero? You're my everything, everything I wished I could be Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle If you, you are the wind beneath my wings Oh, beneath my wings

Fly, fly You're my hero Fly, won't you fly Fly
