Ian Hunter Patterson, (born 3 June 1939), is an English singer-songwriter who is best known as the lead singer of the English rock band Mott the Hoople from its inception in 1969 to its dissolution in 1974, and at the time of its 2009 reunion. Hunter was a musician and songwriter before joining Mott The Hoople, and continued in this vein after he left the band. He embarked on a solo career despite ill health and disillusionment with commercial success, and often worked in collaboration with Mick Ronson, David Bowie's sideman and arranger from the Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars period. more »

Imagine no daylight only the moon as your guide
When ours is to darkness what forgotten sun is to bright
Eyes wide open now taking it all in stride
And I can see your eyes when the stars hang low
Like a crown the moon wears a dim halo
And to all my regret I fair thee well
You came around too slowly as I fell
My screams can only echo off the walls
I see nothing left to break my fall
Break my fall
To bear the slings and arrows, my chances narrow
Just roll with the punches now, bruises can heal
Soften the blow cause I don't want to feel anymore
Just cancel out this fear
And I can see your eyes when the stars hang low
And like a crown the moon wears a dim halo
And to all my regret I fair thee well
You came around too slowly as I fell
And my screams can only echo off the walls
I see nothing left to break my fall
Break my fall
And I can see your eyes when the stars hang low
Like a crown the moon wears a dim halo
And to all my regret I fair thee well
You came around too slowly as I fell
My screams can only echo off the walls
I see nothing left
To all my regret I fair thee well
You came around too slowly as I fell
My screams can only echo off
Echo off the walls
My screams can only echo off
Echo off the walls
