Music video

The music video was directed by Bill Young. It starts out in a house museum with a boy who is on a tour, and before going along with the tour, he takes a look at a picture of a woman. Then he starts to imagine her at a party in a past themed time, with Walker singing in a background with a bright moon right behind him.
