Plot:
The music video for the song plays out the lyrics, showing Phil Collins singing to a mysterious woman while Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford play in the background. One sequence involves Collins, cloaked in shadows and illuminated by a red light. The video is shot in a sepia tone until 2 minutes 40 seconds into the video when color fades in. When performed live, white lights were shone from underneath the stage to recreate this sequence.
