This is a photo of me as a baby. My mom is holding me up and hiding behind me, so that I supposedly could stand on my own. It made me realize that this photo is the perfect backdrop for a song that suits her.
Wind Beneath My Wings |
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
Â
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
Â
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
Â
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
Â
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
Â
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
Â
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
Â
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

Its indeed a lovely song and I have loved it all my life. I somehow, (don't kill me for that!) associate the song with my husband 🙂
Dee says
Haha I won't! I think it's sweet that you found a husband who you associate that song to. Not everyone is as lucky. 🙂
Megan says
wht an adorable picture. That song makes me cry every single time I hear it. It was my Grandpa's song for my grandma.
Dee says
Aww that's sweet. Sometimes this song makes me cry too. I know it did when they played it on the movie Beaches.
Jen Forbes says

Mark Means says
