"The Wind Beneath My Wings (Hero)" lyrics

You know, in everybody's life
There's that special person
Someone you look up to
Someone that you'd like to say special words to
And just can't seem to find the right ones
Then comes along a song that says it all
Why don't you dedicate this song to your special person
While I dedicate it to my special person
My husband and manager, Emil Jackson

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
You were the one with all the strength
Only a face without a name
I never once heard you complain

But didn't you know that you're my hero, yeah
Everything I'd like to be
I can fly higher, higher than an eagle
With you as the wind beneath my wings

It might have appeared to go unnoticed
But I've got it all right here, right here in my heart
I know you know the truth
That I wouldn't be nothing without you

But didn't you know that you're my hero, yeah
Everything I'd like to be
I can fly higher, higher than an eagle
With you as the wind beneath my wings
With you as the wind beneath my wings

But didn't you know that you're my hero, yeah
Everything I'd like to be
I can fly higher, higher than an eagle
With you as the wind beneath my wings

With you as the wind beneath my wings
With you as the wind beneath my wings
Oh yeah
