"She's a tough girl, and very smart. So, how much she's going to come back and when, I don't know and I'm not going to guess," he continued. "I love her. She's probably the best of us - probably the greatest living singer-songwriter. I think we're all holding our breath and thinking a good thought, hoping that it's going to turn out OK."
