Hi Linmag,

The additional verse by Leonard is....

"and I feel like I'm falling apart
and it's stronger than drink
and it's deeper than sorrow
this darkness she's left in my heart"

As usual, Leonard takes the mood and style of covered song and writes the best verse and in it summarizes the whole song. Remember his cover of Always, and great verse he added there?
It went:
"Not for just a second, or a minute, or an hour,
Not for just a weekend and a shake down in the shower,
Not for just the summer and the winter going sour,
But always, always, always"
I read that this verse is Leonard's, that it wasn't in the original version?
