I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire Lyrics

I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire
I don't want to set this great big world on fire
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart

A flame in your heart

In my home I have but one desire
And that one is you no other will do

No other will do

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just wanna be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I have reached the goal I'm dreaming of believe me
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just wanna start a flame in your heart

A flame in your heart

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just wanna be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I have reached the goal I'm dreaming of believe me
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just wanna start a flame in your heart

A flame in your heart

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
