Here you are again
Still the same old wayward child
Runnin' blinded
Just the sight of your sweet face
Can erase the empty hours
And leave them all behind me

Like a tide
Over upon that shore
Any time you are away from me
You're like the sea
Love will always go
On and on into eternity

Save your alibis
Hold your guilty head up high
Lullabying
I don't care what you been doin'
Words are few and far between us
I can see no sense in lying

Like a tide
You're rise and fallin'
Any time you are away from me
You're like the sea
Love will always go
On and on into eternity

Pauline Matthews better known as Kiki Dee, is an English singer.

She kicked around Britain as a white soul singer for the better part of the late ‘60s and early '70s – even becoming the first British Caucasian signed to Motown – before hooking up with Elton John, who signed her to his Rocket Records label and produced her first notable hit, “I’ve Got the Music in Me.”

In 1976, at which time John was the biggest pop star in the world, he wrote and duetted with Dee on the single “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” which promptly topped the charts all over the world. It did not, however, make Dee a long-term star, though she scored a couple of subsequent hits in England and turned to the stage with some success, especially by starring in Blood Brothers in the West End.
