[00:01.96]I remember when I was a girl
[00:06.61]Our house caught on fire
[00:10.31]And I'll never forget the look on my father's face
[00:13.91]As he gathered me in his arms
[00:17.31]And raced to the burning building out on the pavement
[00:24.24]And I stood there shivering
[00:27.08]And watched the whole world go up in flames
[00:32.19]And when it was all over, I said to myself
[00:37.76]Is that all there is to a fire? Is that all there is?
[00:47.57]Is that all there is? If that's all there is
[00:56.12]My friends, then let's keep dancing
[01:04.15]Let's break out the booze and have a ball
[01:15.81]If that's all there is
[01:28.75]And when I was twelve years old
[01:31.59]My daddy took me to the circus
[01:34.48]The greatest show on Earth
[01:37.86]And there were clowns and elephants
[01:41.10]Dancing bears and a beautiful lady
[01:44.40]In pink tights flew high above our heads
[01:49.32]And as I sat there watching
[01:53.91]I had the feeling that something was missing
[01:57.30]I don't know what but when it was all over
[02:01.69]I said to myself, is that all there is to the circus?
[02:08.88]Is that all there is? If that's all there is
[02:21.58]My friends, then let's keep dancing
[02:29.16]Let's break out the booze and have a ball
[02:40.26]If that's all there is
[02:52.31]And then I fell in love
[02:55.04]With the most wonderful boy in the world
[02:58.38]We'd take long walks down by the river
[03:01.79]Or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes
[03:06.25]We were so very much in love
[03:12.27]And then one day he went away
[03:15.95]And I'd thought I'd die but I didn't
[03:21.10]And when I didn't, I said to myself
[03:25.05]Is that all there is to love?
[03:29.78]Is that all there is? If that's all there is
[03:42.08]My friends, then let's keep
[03:47.41]I know what you must be saying to yourselves
[03:51.59]If that's the way she feels about it
[03:54.33]Then why doesn't she just end it all
[03:57.74]Oh no, not me, I'm not ready for the final disappointment
[04:04.99]'Cause I know just as well
[04:07.75]As I'm standing here talking to you
[04:11.34]That when that final moment comes
[04:14.01]And I'm breathing my last breath
[04:17.01]I know what I'll be saying to myself
[04:20.97]Is that all there is?
[04:23.58]Is that all there is? If that's all there is
[04:35.05]My friends, then let's keep dancing
[04:42.31]Let's break out the booze and have a ball
[04:52.98]If that's all there is
