Unsung Hero


This one was probably inspired in part by Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath My Wings".


You've done so much.
Never took the credit.
Never cared if people knew
It was you who did it.

You ask for so little
Though you give a lot.
Friends like you
Just can't be bought.

You're my unsung hero
That money can't buy.
You're the one that helped me out
At times I thought I'd die.

The things you do
Can't be repaid.
You never complain
If "thank you" isn't said.

You're one of the best.
That's always been true.
It's high time someone should
Do something for you.

You're my unsung hero.
You, my unselfish friend.
It is to you my gratitude
Will never, ever end.

You never once stepped
Into the spotlight
But you deserve some credit.
It only seems right.

You're the unsung hero
Who helps for nothing at all.
You're the unsung hero
Who's there when somebody falls.
