Music video

The music video was directed by John Lloyd Miller and premiered in early 1994. Filmed in black-and-white with a grainy texture, it features a cameo from Gill's then-wife, Janis. It begins with a still shot of Gill's and Janis' silhouette. The action begins as she instantly leaves him. The remainder of the video shows Gill in a bar and walking along a city street on a rainy night surrounded by various people and alone trying to cope with his sadness. Shots of Janis on her separate path looking blank-faced are also seen. It ends with a shot of Gill's silhouette again, this time alone.
