I agree. I can hear the past tense of he word too.

I only heard it maybe the first time she said "fair weather friends" but not at all with the second one. It is possible you're right, but it just doesn't make sense to me. I'm just really am not hearing that "-ed" at all except for on the first time she says "fair-weather" and even that is iffy to me because of all the background noise. Who knows, perhaps my hearing is just off--- we will find out eventually! haha.

I love it.

The second verse about Stephen is hilarious.

LOL THIS.

That's what I thought too, though I'm wondering whether he is the one that V's pertaining to.

I'm kind of bummed she changed the lyrics, they don't sound as natural now.
Peace

I agree that they aren't as natural, but I think that my favorite new line would have to be:
"I got your message, glad you're doing well."
The song may be over, but the music never ends.

Same here. I like how she seem to send message to somebody through her songs.

Personally, I also like the premier version cause I think it's more candid and honest and creates a more vivid scenery.

I agree, it also just sounds way more natural and fluid. But still love the song of course!

Soon, I feel. That is, if V will have another show before she release her record. But in the mean time, I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Didn't she tell Nicole after the Enlow Hall show that she isn't going to have any more shows until next spring?

Yeah, V did. But hey, miracles do happen. (: I still try to be optimistic about it. But if she won't really do any other shows until spring, then I'd just look forward to the album version of the song.

I like the first version better.

I can't get into this new one. Same with "London".

I don't have the other version of the song, just the first one and I thank you so much for the lyrics because I was having iusses figuring out a few words here and there.  Just by reading the lyrics the flow does seem a lot better with the first one.  I Love the way she tells stories and I can picture it all.  She is an amazing writer and I also love the glimpse into her life.  I have always loved how she writes from the heart and is totally relatable.  Love you V!
