My sisters and I used to go watch this movie over and over at the dollar theater. We would just weep and weep. We would just bring a box of tissue and cry . . . now I don't have any sisters left.
Now I have my husband, and he is truly the wind beneath my wings. He is the reason I am here to write today, rather than moldering beneath the ground. He and my kids give my life reason and purpose. I wake up in the morning and get out of bed because I know I will be with them. They are the wind beneath my wings, my everything, my breathing out and breathing in.
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.
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.
Chorus
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and ev'rything 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,
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 with out you.
Chorus
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and ev'rything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away,
you let me fly so high.
Oh, fly, fly,
so high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you,
the wind beneath my wings.
