Does anyone know if/how the single version differs from the album version?

As a supplement to Jim's promo CD single info for Michael Bolton's "How Can We Be Lovers", I thought I'd add that cassette single copies have an actual run time of 3:54. (Timing info comes courtesy of my good friend, Edtop40. There is no printed run time on the sleeve or cassette.)
I would also like to echo Gordon's question as to whether or not the single and album version are different? Given that "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" and "Back on My Feet Again" appeared in their original LP versions on early pressings of Bolton's Soul Provider CD and then were replaced by their respective 45 versions on subsequent CD pressings, I wouldn't be at all surprised if some single and album differences for "How Can We Be Lovers" have existed at some point. Can anyone help shed some light on this?

In Pat's database, which has 7 CD entries for "How Can We Be Lovers", he doesn't list any particular CD as being "single mix" or "album mix". All time out between 3:53 and 3:54. He does address the fact that a dj 45 contains an "AC mix". My guess is, to distinguish between the AC mix on one side of the 45 and the version on the other side of the 45, Columbia decided to label the one side "single version". So I'd bet that the single version and album version are one and the same.
But I wonder if the AC mix has appeared on any import CD or on a promo CD single. Has anyone seen it on CD?

The very first post above is the info from Jim's promo CD, which
contains the AC Mix.
