Music video

edit

This music video is set in a restaurant, where Roy asks a number of girls to a restaurant. They all seem uninterested with him, and he pulls out the same flowers for them all. They all leave him, and near the end, Roy is sitting alone at his table when the young waitress sits down with him. They both laugh as the scene fades to black.
