\"When<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There was a point when I realized the attractive, smart, funny young adults around me had been named by my<\/span> generation (yeah, talkin’ ’bout that<\/span> generation).<\/p>\n

Someplace in the early 90’s I realized all the pretty girls were named Ashley and Taylor and Sarah — all the names girls I went to college with said they were going to name their daughters — and I felt kind of old.<\/p>\n\n

When Ashley Said Goodbye<\/span><\/p>\n

Amber said hello when Ashley said good-bye
\nI said hold on but there’s no wondering why
\nwhen love wants in, love can knock down yer door<\/p>\n

I said Amber, I think this is forever
\nshe said baby you’re yanking on my tether
\nwhen all is said and done love will even up the score<\/p>\n

Love will fool ya — love can kill ya<\/span>
\nLove is all that love can give ya<\/span>
\nand still you keep coming back for more <\/span><\/p>\n

Love is funny — love is cruel
\nLove’ll make Einstein act just like a fool
\nLove’ll make a tomcat dive in-a swimin pool<\/p>\n

All these toys all these games
\nall these pretty dollhouses going up in flames
\nif you play around enough you know you’re gonna get burned<\/p>\n

Love will fool ya — love can kill ya<\/span>
\nLove is all that love can give ya<\/span>
\nand still you keep coming back for more<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
