Perry Como - The Wind Beneath My Wings

Wind Beneath My Wings lyrics
Song writer/composer(s): Larry J Henley, Jeff Silbar

It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face?
You've been content to let me shine,
You always walked a step behind.

I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strength.
Only a face without a name
I never once heard you complain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
and everything I'd 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
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I liked to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

You are the wind beneath my wings.

Perry Como use to be a barber back in the 1930's on Long Island NY. He was my aunts fathers barber.

I knew something was missing. Now I can understand all - he was not Barber from Seviglia but from Long Island. :)

This was late husband's favourite song. He was a p/t roadie for a local band and they made a recording of this to play at his funeral. Not a dry eye to be seen anywhere and no matter who sings it I get reduced to tears. Thanks you. Love Perry Como. Can you do this with Matt Munroe too?

Thank you for comment. If you knew this song was very personal for Perry and he did not want to publish it. I can imagine your described picture because I had similar experience when my cousin Crcina sang Ave Maria on funeral. People did not cry for dead man as much as for listening that song. According Matt Monroe you must be predict person I had in mind to use Matt Monroe's song "Till Then, My Love" with pictures of Liara T'sony. I love that character, check my blog.

I like this, blending the old with the new. Keep on doing this, buddy.

Thank you for comment. As you know Stanley Kubrick used this combination in 2001 A Space Odyssey with monkees and waltz On Blue Danube. My recent video Living in the future use similar combination - music of electric guitar from 50-ies with robots or androids. All that picture will be completed if you notice that my favorite movie is Blade Runner. Buddy! :?)

My family goes back with Perry to 1940 when he was on the radio in Chicago. We loved him then as now. He had a voice that was so personal that when he sang one could almost know what he was thinking. His love did shine though his voice. He was also a wonderful human being. I was once asked who in the world I would like to meet of the important people in the world and I said the Pope or Perry Como. That would be a tough one to decide. Thank you Perry. I would love to sing with you someday.

Im sure Matt Monroe would have sung this song very well, but Perry Como as sung it beautiful, its a a tear jerker of a song.
