[00:04.010] "I remember when I was a very little girl,
[00:07.890] our house caught on fire.
[00:11.100] I'll never forget the look
[00:12.590] on my father's face as he gathered me up in his arms
[00:15.940] and raced through the burning building out onto the pavement.
[00:20.730] I stood there shivering in my pajamas
[00:23.610] and watched the whole world go up in flames.
[00:27.230] And when it was all over I said to myself,
[00:30.710] 'Is that all there is to a fire?'"
[00:35.940] Is that all there is?
[00:40.810] Is that all there is?
[00:45.260] If that's all there is, my friends,
[00:49.700] Then let's keep dancing.
[00:53.770] Let's break out the booze
[00:57.170] And have a ball
[01:03.200] If that's all there is.
[01:13.410] "And when I was 12 years old,
[01:15.580] my father took me to the circus,
[01:17.730] the greatest show on earth.
[01:20.680] There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears
[01:25.410] and a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.
[01:31.350] And as I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle,
[01:34.720] I had the feeling that something was missing.
[01:37.380] I don't know what, but when it was all over
[01:40.770] I said to myself, 'Is that all there is to a circus?'"
[01:46.470] Is that all there is?
[01:50.640] Is that all there is?
[01:55.030] If that's all there is, my friends,
[01:59.380] Then let's keep dancing.
[02:03.710] Let's break out the booze
[02:07.060] And have a ball
[02:13.010] If that's all there is.
[02:23.160] "Then I fell in love,
[02:25.320] head over heels in love with the most wonderful boy in the world.
[02:30.660] We would take long walks by the river
[02:32.210] or just sit for hours gazing gazing into each other's eyes.
[02:37.120] We were so very much in love.
[02:40.980] Then one day, he went away.
[02:44.580] And I thought I'd die, but I didn't.
[02:49.040] And when I didn't, I said to myself,
[02:52.750] 'Is that all there is to love?'"
[02:56.360] Is that all there is?
[03:00.320] Is that all there is?
[03:04.750] If that's all there is, my friends,
[03:08.750] Then let's keep dancing.
[03:12.500] "I know what you must be saying to yourselves.
[03:14.970] 'If that's the way she feels about it
[03:17.720] why doesn't she just end it all?'
[03:20.730] Oh, no. Not me. I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment.
[03:27.970] For I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,
[03:32.740] when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath,
[03:36.630] I'll be saying to myself..."
[03:39.750] Is that all there is?
[03:43.840] Is that all there is?
[03:48.130] If that's all there is, my friends,
[03:53.050] Then let's keep dancing.
[03:58.010] Let's break out the booze
[04:00.260] And have a ball
[04:06.510] If that's all there is.
