Music video

Mark Wills' music video, directed by Peter Zavadil and shown in black-and-white, features Wills inside a train station. The video ends with his love coming in the doors, and he gives her an engagement ring. The music video for the 98 Degrees version features the members of the band separately dating a lady played by Ali Landry. At the end of the video, she marries a gentleman played by Dustin Diamond, much to the chagrin of the four band members.

98 Degrees version

In 1999, 98 Degrees released the song as the fourth and final single from their second album, 98 Degrees and Rising.[3] Their version peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also included on the soundtrack for the 1999 romantic film Notting Hill. It also appeared on the NBC Saturday morning television sitcom City Guys, where the group performed at the school courtyard in the episode "Dance Fever".
