(I remember when I was a little girl, our house caught on fire)
(And I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up in his arms)
(And raced through the burning building out into the pavement)
(I stood there shivering in my pajamas, and as I watched the whole world go up in flames)
(I said to myself)
('Is that all there is to a fire?)
(Is that all there is?')
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is
If that's all there is, my friends
Then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all... there is
(And when I was 12 years old, my daddy took me to a circus, the greatest show on earth)
(There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears)
(And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads)
(And so I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle)
(And I had the feeling that there was something missing)
(I don't 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?')
Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends
Then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all... there is
(Then I fell in love with the most wonderful boy in the world)
(We would take long walks by the river, or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes)
(We were so very much in love)
(Then one day, he went away)
(And I thought I'd die, but I didn't)
(So I thought to myself)
('Is that all there is to love?')

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends
Then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all... there is
Yeah, yeah
