The story-line of the video is, Sandford and Phillips are secretly in love and don't want to show it. At the start of the video, Phillips is singing with his band behind him. The scene is changed and Sandford is seen cutting Phillips' clothes up after picking them out of the wardrobe. While the scene changes again, Phillips and Sandford are seen sharing a mic, singing the chorus, in front of the band. There is also a scene where Sandford and Phillips are sitting at end of a each side of a table, while Sandford painting her nails and Phillips singing about his love to Sandford. Later in the video, it is seen Phillips teasing Sandford with her perfume, Sandford trying to get it, but Phillips will not give her it, and he is later seen pouring the perfume down the kitchen sink. Sandford is also seen annoying the band, by snapping [[Philip Jenkins]]' drum sticks and flicking [[Iain Mahanty]] hat off his head.<ref>http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/music/2968741/Frankie-Sandford-stars-in-new-vid-from-Kids-In-Glass-Houses.html</ref>
