The video opens up to Arena walking on water wearing a brown dress and them comes across two girls in blue dresses dancing in pink flowers.

The last fantasy scene shows Arena walking and then dancing in an ice land with giant snowballs surrounding her and dancers dressed in white. The rest of the video shows parts of Arena dancing in the different fantasy areas. The music video was well received being played on Australian music channels 'Video Hits' and 'Rage'.
