Little Did She Know 

(She’d Kissed A Hero) 

by 

Kristy Jackson 

He found some socks  

She chose his tie

And when he left for work that morning 

he was just another guy  

Going to work  

He'd have to fly  

Out to a meeting in L.A. so she had kissed him twice goodbye   

 

Little did she know she’d kissed a hero  

Though he’d always been one in her eyes  

But when faced with certain death  

He’d said a prayer and took a breath  

And led an army of true angels in the sky

Little did she know she’d kissed a hero  

Though he’d always been an angel in her eyes  

Putting others first, it’s true  

That’s what heroes always do  

Now he doesn’t need a pair of wings to fly   

 

The phone had rung  

His voice was calm  

Before he could tell her anything she knew something was wrong  

I love you so  

The last words he’d said  

She said I love you too  

And then the phone went dead  

 

Little did she know she’d kissed a hero  

Though he’d always been one in her eyes 

But when faced with certain death  

He’d said a prayer and took a breath  

And led an army of true angels in the sky 

Little did she know she’d kissed a hero  

Though he’d always been an angel in her eyes 

Putting others first, it’s true  

That’s what heroes always do  

Now he doesn’t need a pair of wings to fly
