Music video

The music video shows Rimes portraying every female role. She performs the song in different parts of a loft, and tries to find the perfect man. Every person that shows up at her door fails to impress her. As she is carrying a load of laundry, she bumps into one final guy, making her drop a bra. She gives him a happy smirk, and realizes he is the one she was looking for. He picks her bra up from the floor, and the two end up cuddling on the couch with a teddy bear he gave her.
