*the wind beneath my wings
词 Larry Henley
曲 Jeff Silbar
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
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
*解
「Wind Beneath My Wings」原本为本首作词人Larry Henley写给他前妻的一首诗的标题
。
1982年,Larry Henley 与 Jeff Silbar两人受聘为鲍布席格(Bob Seger)谱写一首新歌
,在交换意见的时候,席尔巴无意间瞥见亨利的笔记本上面写着一句「Wind Beneath My
Wings」,本身拥有飞机驾照的席尔巴立刻有了灵感,决定要用它为题来写一首歌。两人
讨论的结果,完全放弃了亨利已经完成的诗句,只采用这个概念重新创作,由亨利作词,
而席尔巴则负责谱曲,原本是首乡村歌曲,因为被电影「情比姊妹深」选为主题曲,而再
度受到欢迎。
该部电影是描述一对手足情深的姊妹,因为姊姊的牺牲奉献,使从事演艺事业的妹妹平步
青云,无怨无悔的姊姊最後却罹患了癌症。
随着影片的上映,这首歌曲果然造成了空前的轰动,也使得这首原本描绘作丈夫的人对妻
子心怀感激的动人作品就此成为经典,在1989年六月十日夺得全美冠军,也跻身BMI「二
十世纪百大」之林,成为有史以来被播唱次数最多的第四十一名经典。
