The database entries for this song range from 3:53-3:56 and do not specify any version information.
On Discogs, there is a US promo CD that contains a radio edit with a listed time of 3:55 and the LP version with a listed time of 3:57.
How does the radio edit differ from the LP version? The copy in my library runs 3:54 and was taken from a compilation CD. I'm trying to figure out which version it is.

Promo CD UNIR 21036-2 has two cuts:
1. Radio Edit (3:55 listed & actual)
2. Album Version (3:57 listed; 3:55 actual)
Promo Test Pressing has one cut (3:57 listed; 3:55 actual)

I'm curious to learn what the difference is too.

Thanks for confirming the actual run times, Smokin' TomGary.
So it appears that both the radio edit and the LP version run 3:55. I'm wondering if maybe there are some revised lyrics in the radio edit? Anyone?

Certainly nothing offensive in the lyrics. Mix
difference, maybe?

That's my hunch. I don't have the promo single, but I
compared a version from a Promo Only disc (presumably the
single version) against the track on Away From The
Sun on Amazon Prime's streaming service. Based
on this limited approach, I found that the waveform from
the Promo Only disc looked a lot fuller/compressed than
the album version.

I doubt the mix is enough to warrant a notation in the
database. But, wondering which CD's have the radio edit
or mix.

Turns out I have the lone CD in the database that runs
3:55. Not sure if that means I have the correct mix.
