Lyrics that fit

For the maybe twenty of you out there who have read Emerald House Rising, I was listening to Sting's The Soul Cages the other day, and it occurred to me once again that there's a lyric on that album (Why should I Cry for You) that perfectly fits Captain Kett, thinking about Lady Rinnelle when he's out at sea and hardening his heart because he despairs that she'll never love him (if you ignore the earth-centric geographic references, of course).

It's kinda fun when you find a lyric that fits a work of fiction perfectly. And gee, if you know of any other song lyrics that fit characters or situations in my fiction, point them out to me, willya? Thanks.

I would have already read EHR if I could bloody find a copy when I actually have money on me. *grumbles* Eventually I'm sure that I'll end up admitting defeat and ordering it off of Amazon. Then they will dangle free shipping in front of me and I will be forced (completely against my will) to buy celtic music and picture books to qualify for it. And it will be all your fault. Just so you know.
