Don't Want to Set the World on Fire Songtext
von The Ink Spots

Ooh

I don′t want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
Mm, 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, ooh
And with your admission that you′d 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, ooh
I just want to start a flame in your heart, ooh


You see, baby
I don′t wanna go out there and set that great, great world on fire
'Cause I love you too much for that
I just wanna start a pretty flame deep down in your heart
And while we′re on the subject, let me bounce som' off you here
In my heart, I have but one true love desire
You know you guessed it right again, darling
′Cause that one is you
Ain't nobody else that′s gon' do
No way, no how

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love, ooh
And with your admission that you′d 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, ooh
I just want to start a flame in your heart (your heart)
