Times Like This (Live)

All I have to say is, I am happy to be sittin' here
 Doin' what is meaningful to me
 Workin' on behalf of the Universal Dog home
 Not barkin' up a stranger's tree
 Now, my idea of company would be
 A friendly face, the kind of face
 That melts you with a grin
 The kind of eyes that welcome you
 The minute you walk in
 A tender glance you simply can't refuse
 At times like this, a girl could use a dog
 He listens when you tell him things
 There's nothin' you can't say
 And unlike certain people, you can teach him how to stay
 And when the world is givin' you the blues
 He cheers you up by chewin' up the news
 It's things like that that make you choose a dog
 Other people need romance, dancin', playin' around
 Other people need constant fun, well I'm not one
 I have my feet on the ground
 Give me a quiet night, a stack of books
 A tuna melt of rye
 A simple walk together
 Underneath the starry sky
 And suddenly the world is somethin' rare
 And all because there's someone special there
 Who's gazin' at the views
 His head upon your shoes
 At times like this, I sure could use a dog
