Almost made you love me

Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy babe
Didn't I didn't I

I sat there and watched as you packed your things. It was over and you wanted to move on. Fine it's not like I could stop you. After all it's my heart that got broke not yours. It shouldn't have happened. I shouldn't have loved you but you were so perfect to me. Too bad I couldn't get you to feel the same way. So sad that I'm the one that gets hurt because of this.

You almost had me thinkin'
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Two years and you didn't even fall in love. I was a good time nothing else. You told me you wanted it to be more but it just wasn't you didn't love me. You couldn't love me. The day I met you I knew that you would be trouble for me. The one and only Matt Hardy the most beautiful creature that I had ever seen. And I fell hard right then and there.

Now here you are zipping up your bags like it never mattered. Then you turned and looked at me. I looked away because I couldn't hold your eyes without the tears falling. I couldn't hold myself together if I kept looking at you. "I'm sorry Rose."

Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you babe
You'd found it in me

"Just go Matt. We both know that you don't need to say anything else. You said enough this morning. You're free just like you want to be." I said before I stood and walked out of the bedroom.

"Don't walk away like this Rose." He said from behind me.

"You know I remember that day you told me what you had been missing you found in me. Stupid me I believed you." I said before I walked down the stairs.

"Rose." He called from the top of the stairs.

"You really want to see me break down don't you? You want to see your finished work with me huh? Well, sorry to tell you that you won't." I said before I grabbed my coat and walked outside.

But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

I sat by the river with the locket in my hands looking at the picture of a time I thought that we were happy. Of a time that we looked to be so in love. But he wasn't almost. He had come so close with me. When he said that I felt something inside me break. I felt the thing I called my heart shatter. "Hey Rose are you ok?"

"Just fine Jeff." I said to him as he sat down.

"He is gone." He said to me.

"Well I'm moving out I don't want the house. I wouldn't be able to stay there." I said without looking at him.

"I don't know what is wrong with his I thought he was so in love with you." Jeff said to me.

I looked at him and he saw the tears that were running down my face. "He said he was almost in love with me. But it was enough because everyone knows that almost doesn't count."

Almost doesn't count

Almost doesn't count

Almost doesn't count

Almost doesn't count

A/N a little one shot that I couldn't help but write. Tell me what you think. The song it Almost Doesn't Count by Brandy. I know sappy but it fit the mood that I was in and hopefully it will touch someone else.
