Music Video
The music video for this song was a simple blend of performance miming and scenario playing interspersed throughout. Various couplings are shown showing affection for one another. Cetera is shown strumming his bass (which is flipped upside down, perhaps to better fit the shot or possibly done by Cetera as a bit of a joke) while seated informally on a plush chair for most of the video's duration. Cetera is shown throughout the video wearing a t-shirt for the goth rock pioneers Bauhaus. The band's name is hidden but the logo is unmistakable. This is noteworthy because Bauhaus and Peter Cetera are so incongruous in the public's perception of the two. Also during the video, band member Walt Parazaider is just sitting around, reading a newspaper, looking very bored. Actor Matt Dillon makes a cameo in the music video.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“Franceska: I was happy in the life I built up for myself. I put a fine high wall of music around me and nothing could touch me. I was safe and secure. And then you had to come along and knock it all down and I hate you for that.
Maxwell: On the contrary, you love me.”
—Muriel Box (b. 1905)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
