Lee, Peggy - The Wind Beneath My Wings Lyrics






Ohhhh, oh, oh, oh, ohhh.
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 strain.
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,
for 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.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

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

Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings

    There' s always one fool in the crowd .

  12. i.... ....

    WOW
    It's the subtlety of her delivery that I love.
    She doesn't over-do it, but it's all there in the detail.
    Many singers over power this song but Peggy Lee let's the song speak for itself and only then does the real sentiment of the song come through.
    Eversince I discovered how great she was my life has never been the same.

  13. 1.... ....

    Never was and never will be anyone like her.

  14. t.... ....

    There is no comparison to her version. My favorite by far.

  15. 1.... ....

    Someone tell me how we have gone from Peggy Lee to Lady whatever.

  16. B.... E....

    Glad I found this video as her vocal version of this classic is amazing.
