Music video

The music video was directed by Jack Cole, and was the first of a trilogy of music videos that tell the story of a veteran named Mac Singleton, who is confined to a wheelchair. Tritt portrays Singleton, who is struggling through his time at a rehabilitation clinic after being injured in the Vietnam War, and has nightmares about the war every night. He meets a friend named Al (portrayed by Barry Scott) after awakening from one of his nightmares. Singleton is also struggling from being away from his wife Annie.

The video was featured in CMT's 100 Greatest Music Videos in 2004, where it ranked at No. 64.
