It was also on his third studio album Messenger (1999) and became a Billboard-charted top 40 single in the summer of 1999.

Music video

The music video features McCain walking and taking a taxi through a busy city decorated like a 19th century village with people in 19th century costumes. While McCain is traveling, a number of people are sitting in a park tree. He reaches the tree just as a branch a woman is sitting on breaks and manages to catch her as she falls.
