Israel Kamakawiwo'ole Wind Beneath My Wings Lyrics

Wind Beneath My Wings/He Hawai‘i Au
Israel Kamakawiwo‘ole
(IZ)
------------
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 strain
A beautiful face without a name
A beautiful smile to ease my pain 

Did you ever know that you're my hero And everything I would like to be?

I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings

You are the wind beneath my wings 

-----
I ke i'a po ke i'a au me o'e
Ke i'a po ua ho'i ma i au
He loa ka helena ma ke a la hele

E huli wahi ma ke i'a au 

Mau popo au ua i ke ho'i

Ka home iloko ku'u pu'u way

U'a ho'i mai i'au ke i ke nei au
