"You've Changed" is a popular song originally written by Bill Carey and Carl Fischer in 1941.  Lady in Satin is an album by jazz singer Billie Holiday released in 1958 on Columbia Records, catalogue CL 1157 in mono and CS 8048 in stereo. It is the next to final album completed by the singer and released in her lifetime (her final album, Billie Holiday, being recorded in March 1959 and released just after her death). The original album was produced by Irving Townsend, and engineered by Fred Plaut.  Unlike the bulk of Holiday's recordings, rather than in the setting of a jazz combo Holiday returns to the backdrop of full orchestral arrangements as done during her Decca years. The album consists of songs Holiday had never recorded before. The arrangements were by bandleader Ray Ellis. Soloists on the album included Mel Davis, Urbie Green, and bebop trombone pioneer J.J. Johnson.

Billie's accompanied by Urbie Green, J.J. Johnson, Tom Mitchell (trombone) Phil Bodner, Tom Parsley, Romeo Penque, Ed Powell (reeds) Janet Putman (harp) Bradley Spinney (xylophone) Mal Waldron (piano) Barry Galbraith (guitar) Milt Hinton (bass) Don Lamond (drums), Ray Ellies (arranger, conductor) unidentified strings, harp, vocal choir.  Recorded February 20, 1958, New York. (Columbia Records)

You've changed
 That sparkle in your eyes is gone
 Your smile is just a careless yawn
 You're breaking my heart
 You've changed
 
You've changed
 Your kisses now are so blase
 You're bored with me in every way
 I can't understand
 You've changed
 
You've forgotten the words, "I love you"
 Each memory that we've shared
 You ignore every star above you
 I can't realize you'd ever care
 You've changed
 
You're not the angel I once knew
 No need to tell me what we're through
 It's all over now
 You've changed

You've forgotten the words, "I love you"
 Each memory that we've shared
 You ignore every star above you
 I can't realize you ever cared
 You've changed
 
You're not the angel I once knew
 No need to tell me what we're through
 It's all over now
 You've changed
 You've changed
