CHANGE OF HEART 
(Rox)

as recorded by Dean Martin
1955


IF the sky can change from cloudy to butterfly weather
And the ocean's roar becomes a lullaby,
Why can't you, why can't you love me?
Have a change of heart and be my apple pie!

Oh, a leopard can't change his spots,
And oil and water can't mix,
But I have recently heard
An old dog learned new tricks!

If the icy winds that blast us in December
Can in April bring the blossoms to the vine,
Why can't you, why can't you love me?
Have a change of heart and be my Valentine!

Why can't you, why can't you love me?
Have a change of heart and be my apple pie!

Oh, a leopard can't change his spots,
And oil and water can't mix,
But I have recently heard
An old dog learned new tricks!

If the icy winds that blast us in December
Can in April bring the blossoms to the vine,
Why can't you, why can't you love me?
Have a change of heart and say that you'll be mine,
Have a change of heart and say that you'll be mine,
Have a change of heart and say that you'll be mine!
