Both artists released a music video for the song on May 31th. Directed by Hayley Kiyoko. The video is structured like a short film.
The video drew that the two as young lovers running away together, hitchhiking, breaking up and reunion. You will feel happy when you see point 4:30 of the clip.

Hayley Kiyoko told GQ in an interview;
"I’m just obsessed with Kehlani. That’s what I’m obsessed with. If I could sing like her… We do sound really lovely together. I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is a really nice match.’ We wrote that song in four hours. I’ve been trying to work with her for a year and a half because I’m a hardcore fan. She is one of the first artists to really support me and be like, ‘Yo, you’re dope,’ and that means a lot. It was such a 50/50 collab. It was just so easy and flowed so well."
Kehlani tweeted of the video;
“This is my favorite video i’ve ever been apart of. Hayley is a genius, an incredible actress and one of the most diligent and hard working directors i’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. there was no lines in the entire video. every speaking part was improv. the only thing scripted was the scenes. all movements were natural improv by us. we’re so happy you like it!”- source : Rolling Stone
