[00:00.700] "I remember when I was a little girl,
[00:06.207] our house caught on fire.
[00:09.460] I'll never forget the look
[00:10.946] on my father's face as he gathered me up in his arms,
[00:13.450] and raced through the burning building out onto the pavement.
[00:18.698] And I stood there shivering in my pajamas
[00:21.196] and watched the whole world go up in flames.
[00:24.961] And when it was all over, I said to myself,
[00:28.196] 'Is that all there is to a fire?'"
[00:36.703] Is that all there is?
[00:39.195] Is that all there is?
[00:43.697] If that's all there is, my friends,
[00:47.713] then let's keep dancing.
[00:52.947] Let's break out the booze,
[00:55.954] And have a ball.
[01:01.197] If that's all there is.
[01:12.700] "And when I was 12 years old,
[01:14.694] my daddy took me to the circus,
[01:17.445] the greatest show on earth.
[01:22.704] There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears,
[01:26.699] and a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.
[01:31.462] And as I sat there watching,
[01:34.199] I had the feeling that something was missing.
[01:37.704] I don't know what, but when it was all over,
[01:40.701] I said to myself, 'Is that all there is to the circus?'"
[01:47.445] Is that all there is?
[01:50.952] Is that all there is?
[01:55.702] If that's all there is, my friends,
[01:59.701] Then let's keep dancing.
[02:04.201] Let's break out the booze,
[02:07.693] And have a ball.
[02:13.198] If that's all there is.
[02:23.946] "and then I fell in love,
[02:26.707] with the most wonderful boy in the world.
[02:29.695] We take long walks down by the river,
[02:33.458] or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.
[02:38.207] We were so very much in love.
[02:41.200] And then one day, he went away.
[02:45.708] And I thought I'd die, but I didn't.
[02:49.699] And when I didn't, I said to myself,
[02:53.447] 'Is that all there is to love?'"
[02:56.700] Is that all there is?
[03:00.457] Is that all there is?
[03:04.441] If that's all there is, my friends,
[03:09.191] Then let's keep ...
[03:11.442] “I know what you must be saying to yourselves.
[03:14.948] 'If that's the way she feels about it,
[03:17.194] why doesn't she just end it all?'
[03:19.942] Oh, no. Not me. I'm not ready for that final disappointment.
[03:26.701] Cause I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,
[03:30.449] and when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath,
[03:35.708] I'll be saying to myself..."
[03:38.956] Is that all there is?
[03:42.950] Is that all there is?
[03:46.954] If that's all there is, my friends,
[03:51.697] then let's keep dancing.
[03:56.442] Let's break out the booze,
[03:59.449] And have a ball.
[04:05.451] If that's all there is.
