Did you want the lyrics too? Here they are just in case. Enjoy. And it is Bobby Caldwell - (born August 15, 1951) is an American singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who, despite a prolific musical output over his more than 25-year career, is still best known for his 1978 hit single "What You Won't Do for Love." While he has always maintained a devoted fan base in the United States, a more legendary status has been bestowed upon him in Japan.
I guess you wonder where I've been
I searched to find the love within
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go
My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go
Some people go around the world for love
And they may never find what they dream of
What you won't do, do for love
You tried everything
But you don't give up
In my world only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do
My friends wonder what is wrong with me
Well I'm in a daze from your love you see
I came back to let you know
Got a thing for you
And I can't let go
And though I only want the best it's true
I can't believe the things I do for you
What you won't do, do for love
You've tried everything
But you won't give up
In my world only you
Make me do for love
What I would not do

written and sung by Bobby Caldwell and recorded in Miami Florida in 1978 entitled what you won't do for love he also has three other albums from that time period, Bobby Caldwell, Cat In The Hat, and Carry On bobby never had a huge following in the U.S.A. but was a superstar in Japan. and on what you won't do for love Bobby sang lead and back up vocals and played most of all the instruments on the record. i saw Bobby C. play at the Roxie theater on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles in 1980 or 1981 i don't remember the exact year.
