I wish I could stay here with you,
	but that can never be.
	This path that I have chosen,
	has written my desinty.

	But I will still protect you,
	though you will never see my face.
	And I will always love you,
	keep you, forever in my heart's embrace.

	This oath I swear to you,
	as Maiden of the Stars.
	Through you will not know my name.
	It will never matter, I love you just the same.

	Though my memory must fade away,
	with my mind and soul.
	My heart will still keep you,
	never letting go.

	And I will protect you,
	though you will not see my face.
	And I will always love you,
	keep you, forever in my heart's embrace.

	This oath I swear to you,
	though you do not know my name.
	It does not matter,
	I love you just the same...
