Content

The song tells of a narrator, who is feeling bad for a woman whose boyfriend has left her.

Music video

The music video for this song starts out in a bar with a man playing a piano, and another man sitting with a woman at a nearby table, socializing and having a conversation.

Scenes then switch between Keith singing in a private bedroom, and him at that same bar, trying to make the woman feel better, after the man she was socializing with earlier breaks her heart.

In the second verse of the song, Keith is doing nice things for the woman (i.e. pouring coffee for her). He is then watching the man and the woman, at a table inside the bar, and starts feeling bad for her.

By the song's bridge, Keith is dancing with her, and back at the bar, goes back to talk with the woman's ex-boyfriend. In a later scene, the man and the woman finish talking, and the man gets up and leaves the bar.
