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 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, wait down inside to me "
"Darling, I have only one desire"
"And that one desire is you"
"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
