I remember when I was a girl
Our house caught on fire
And Ill never forget the look on my fathers face
As he gathered me in his arms
And raced to the burning building out on the pavement
And I stood there shivering
And watched the whole world go up in flames
And when it was all over
I said to myself
Is that all there is to a fire ?
Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If thats all there is, my friends, then lets keep dancing
Lets break out the booze and have a ball
If thats all there is
And when I was twelve years old
My daddy took me to the circus
The greatest show on earth
And there were clowns
And elephants
Dancing bears,
And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads
And as I sat there watching
I had the feeling that something was missing
I dont know what
But when it was all over
I said to myself
Is that all there is to the circus ?
Is that all there is?
If thats all there is, my friends, then lets keep dancing
Lets break out the booze and have a ball
If thats all there is
And then I fell in love
With the most wonderful boy in the world
Wed take long walks down by the river
Or just sit for hours gazing into each others eyes
We were so very much in love
And then one day
He went away
And I thought Id die
But I didnt
And when I didnt
I said to myself
Is that all there is to love ?
Is that all there is?
If thats all there is, my friends, then lets keep
I know what you must be saying to yourselves
If thats the way she feels about it
Then why doesnt she just end it all
Oh no. not me. Im not ready for the final disappointment
cause I know just as well as Im standing here talking to you
That when that final moment comes
And Im breathing my last breath
I know what Ill be saying to myself
Is that all there is ?
Is that all there is?
If thats all there is, my friends, then lets keep dancing
Lets break out the booze and have a ball
If thats all there is
