The Ink Spots ☆ I Don’t Want To Set The World On Fire

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

Monologue :

“I don’t want to set the world on fire,
honey, I love you too much
I just want to 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 going to 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
