Love song questions

One for MrSki, lots of questions, no answers but a brilliant brilliant tune

Listen...do you want to know a secret? Do you promise not to tell?

Cristina's version of Is that all there is?

Spoiler: Cristina - Is That All There Is

And then I met the most wonderful boy in Manhattan.
We used to walk by the river, and he beat me black and blue and I loved it.
I could kill for that guy
But then one day James went away. 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?
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
