"Romantic World" is a 1990 song recorded by American singer Dana Dawson. Written by Romano Musumarra and Porter Carroll, it was released in December 1990 as the lead single from the album Paris New York and Me, on which it appears as the first track. It was very successful in France, becoming Dawson's first top five in France and her biggest hit in the country.

In France, "Romantic World" debuted at number 43 on the chart edition of 22 December 1990, but fell of the top 50 two weeks later. Then it re-entered the chart at number 45 and climbed quickly, reaching a peak of number four in its 13th week of presence. It totalled 15 weeks in the top ten and fell off the top 50 after 26 weeks. It achieved Gold status, awarded by the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique, the French certificator, for over 400,000 units sold.[1] It achieved a minor success in Sweden and Belgium (Flanders) where it charted for two and three weeks respectively, and peaked at number 33, and was a commercial failure in Australia where it failed to reach the top 100. On the European Hot 100, it debuted at number 98 on 9 February 1991, peaked at number 21 in its ninth week and remained in the top 100 for 19 weeks.

In 1993, South African singer Brenda Fassie covered the song on her album I Am Not A Bad Girl.
