Lyrics of I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire (Rerecorded) by The Ink Spots
pre-chorus
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
chorus
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
pre-chorus
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
bridge
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
Darlin' I have only one desire
And that one desire is you
And I know, nobody else ain't gonna do
chorus
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
pre-chorus
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
Writer(s): Eddie Durham, Bennie Benjamin, Eddie Seiler, Sol Marcus
