Music video
The official music video was released via the Lumineers' YouTube and Vevo accounts on November 16, 2016. As of August 2021, it has gained over 170 million views.[4] The music video was directed by Isaac Ravishankara, who also directed The Ballad of Cleopatra videos compilation,[5] starring Elise Eberle and Adam C. Lively.[6]
The clip begins with a scene of a girl attending her father's funeral, then her boyfriend tells her "If we don't leave now, you may never make it out". Then the girl goes with him into a car and they drive throughout all the state; after some mechanical problems with their car, they finally arrive at a house where they spend the night. The same night they get married; the music video ends with them going to sleep on the house's floor but when it dawns, she was the only one laying down on the floor. This means the rest of the video was what could’ve happened if she left with her boyfriend.
