Is That All There Is? - Peggy Lee

Is That All There Is? - Peggy Lee (佩吉·李)
I remember when I was a little girl
Our house caught on fire
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 to the pavement
I stood there shivering in my pajamas 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 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
I had the feeling that something was missing
I don't know what but when it was over
I said to myself is that all there is to a circus
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
And when I didn't I said 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
I know what you must be saying to yourselves
If that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all
Oh no not me I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment
For I know just as well as
I'm standing here talking to you
When that final moment comes and
I'm breathing my lst breath
I'll be saying to myself
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
