Wind Beneath My Wings - Gerald Levert, Eddie Levert

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
