Music video

The music video was directed by Jim Shea, and features Carson in a wall-themed projection world, intercut with scenes of him walking through an old house. Throughout the video, candles are burning, and Carson was standing the whole time. It premiered nationally on CMT in 1995, where it reached number one on CMT's Top 12 Countdown.
