At the start of the music video there is a black and white video with a Chinese lantern going up in the air then there is a quick switch to "Lee Brice" coming onto a stage in the middle of an empty auditorium with a guitar and having a stool in the middle of the stage. When he is walking onto the stage there is an element of music visualisation as the beat of the music fits with him strumming his guitar showing that there is an element of a performance. Also when the singing starts we get a long shot of him behind, lip sinking to show he is performing to someone.
However there is a contrast of the lighting as there is a black and white video of a wedding the back ground, but then in colour when he is performing on stage, suggesting that in the past he has got married as there are elements of a wedding with a church cross, Chinese lantern, brides maids, video of the bride getting ready etc. This could be showing Lee's past as there is a guy in the video who looks identical to him suggesting it could have been his wedding. Again there is music visualisation as when he is saying "spinning you round in circles" there is a video of people dancing and spinning at this wedding. To add you could argue that he is upset as he is by himself playing his guitar in the middle of the stage with no one listening to show he is getting his thoughts out. At the start when he is playing his guitar the house lights are on and there is only one spot light to show is calm and comfortable as white shows peace, however when the chorus comes on there is an element that he is angry as there are red and blue lights behind him, and having an upshot singing loudly therefore the song could be that the wife ended it and he is upset thinking about the past.
