Betty Carter - I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire lyrics

I don't ever care to rise to power I would rather be with you an hour For the things that one can buy Are not worth a lover's sigh 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
