First met at university
We were both dressed up as characters from Bleach
You were Nanao; I was Renji
A cosplay bar-crawl though I didn’t drink
And the start of a great friendship
Between two fun-loving anime geeks
Kept in touch after I’d graduated
All those letters stamped and dated
That I waited for excitedly
’Til one day you asked to meet in London
Said you had feelings for someone
Never thought it could be me
Oh what an adventure
We’ve been on together
Let’s keep going forever
And things just get better
I want to live each day
Like it’s now or never
Fold a paper crane for every good time
Just want to be right here by your side
And I don’t need anything more
You make my heart ignite
Clear as the full moon shines so bright
You were all I was ever searching for
Been under the same roof for five years or more by now
When I first moved out to live with you
What a dream come true
And our flat stank of pigeon poop
Living on a quid a day each for food
No hot water but I had you
Great memories of Herne Bay
And our brief time in Margate
Then headed north to Rotherham and Pudsey
And I know we’ve had a few fights
And I’ve sworn at you a few times
But it’s been the best life
Oh what an adventure
We’ve been on together
Let’s keep going forever
And things just get better
I want to live each day
Like it’s now or never
Fold a paper crane for every good time
Just want to be right here by your side
And I don’t need anything more
You make my heart ignite
Clear as the full moon shines so bright
You were all I was ever searching for
You were all I was ever searching for
You were all I was ever searching for
You were all I was ever searching for
You were all I was ever searching for
You were all I was ever searching for
