I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire

I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire - The Ink Spots (墨跡斑斑)/Dick Haymes/The Modernaires

I don't want to set the world on fire

I just want to start a flame in your heart

In my heart I have but one desire

And that one is you

No other will do

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim

I just want to be the one you love

And with your admission that you feel the same

I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of

Believe me

I don't want to set the world on fire

I just want to start a flame in your heart

I don't wanna set the world on fire honey

I love you too much

I just wanna start a great big flame

Down in your heart

You see

Way down inside of me

Darling I have only one desire

And that one desire is you

And I know nobody else ain't gonna do

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim

I just want to be the one you love

And with your admission that you feel the same

I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of

Believe me

I don't want to set the world on fire

I just want to start a flame in your heart
