Once I had a heart cold as ice Love to me was only for fun I'd make a mark for each broken heart Like notches on the butt of a gun Once I had a trick up my sleeve And a reputation all over town I was heartless and cold wherever I'd go I shot down every young boy I found Yes I used to be a moonlight bandit I used to be a heartbreak kid Then I met you and the next thing I knew There I was oh shot full of love Well who'd have thought that someone like you Could take a desperado like me But oh here I am I'm as meek as a lamb With my bleeding heart there at your feet Yes I used to be a moonlight bandit Yes I used to be a moonlight bandit
