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
