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 shed kissed a hero

Though hed always been one in her eyes

But when faced with certain death

Hed said a prayer and took a breath

And led an army of true angels in the sky

Little did she know shed kissed a hero

Though hed always been an angel in her eyes

Putting others first, its true

Thats what heroes always do

Now he doesnt 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 hed said

She said I love you too

And then the phone went dead



Little did she know shed kissed a hero

Though hed always been one in her eyes

But when faced with certain death

Hed said a prayer and took a breath

And led an army of true angels in the sky

Little did she know shed kissed a hero

Though hed always been an angel in her eyes

Putting others first, its true

Thats what heroes always do

Now he doesnt need a pair of wings to fly
