Music video

Two different versions of this video have been released, both of which contain various live action references to scenes in Meet the Robinsons.

Synopsis

The original version features Thomas set against various backdrops, most of which feature crowded scenes. It starts out with Thomas in a rainy day in a city, singing the song under an umbrella. The camera pans out at the chorus to show various people in the city. The next verse begins with Thomas on a rooftop in the city, playing an acoustic guitar while singing, and at the second chorus, the camera again pans out to show window views of various people engaging in different activities. The bridge shows Thomas at a kids' softball game. A kid hits a home run ball, which carries onto a beach, and in front of a house on the coast of the beach, Thomas sings the last of the song while people play around on the beach.
It ends with Thomas walking off the beach into the sunset.
The second version is essentially the same, but with additional footage from Meet the Robinsons spliced in. Both versions were directed by Dave Meyers.
