When it comes down to it
--down, chips down, black belt down, her expectations down --
She's still my baby
And whatever she's able is alright with me.
It's all Up, to me.
She asked to take the summer off which is fine by all of us. Maybe we pushed her too hard. The line is so fine. I dunno. Maybe we're all a little burnt. I want to teach her to not give up without hating the sport, hating a thing. That's hard to do when I'm not sure I've done that myself in my life. I don't give up easily, I suppose. I just know how hard it is to keep going sometimes.
But I tell her it's all ok. The present is bright even if we need a rest. It's all Up, to me.
