The accompanying music video was directed by Devonté Hynes himself.- Devonté Hynes said of the song, “A song about deep breaths in country fields & the ones we miss when we close our eyes. Thank you to my wonderful friends that helped me get this over the line. Not just musically or with the video. A year ago I was lost and overcome with grief, and did not see a way forward in creating. So thank you to everyone that got me over the finish line. Video directed & edited by me.”
