What kind of fool did you think I'd be
You said you really really loved me
Darling you run around all over town
You build me up then you let me down

Here's the moral of the story from the guy who knows:
I fell in love and my love still grows.
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say,
"A-keep away from-a runaround Sue."

Runaround Sue, Dion

(the drifter)

I cried when I wrote this song,
Sue me if I play too long,
This brother is free
I'll be what I want to be

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

James Taylor
Fire and Rain

Edit: Additional info: On October 20, 2001, in Madison Square Garden, a chilling prophetic accuracy came over this song as James Taylor, along with other rock, pop, and movie stars, entertained an audience of six thousand firefighters, police officers, emergency workers, and their families and thanked them for their dedication and hard work in the aftermath of September 11’s tragedy. Suddenly Suzanne was just one in over five thousand who died there in the attack on the World Trade Center, and it was the plans of a few terrorists that brought an end to her—and them—leaving a nation disoriented and distraught. Like James, we wrote down our feelings, but we didn’t know what to do with them.

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.

-- Yesterday, Paul McCartney

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe that your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

And when I talk about therapy, I know what people think,
That it only makes you selfish and in love with your shrink,
But oh how I loved everybody else,
When I finally got to talk so much about myself

(What Do You Hear In These Sounds, Dar Williams)
