The first stanza takes place inside the airport and during the chorus, the scene shifts to Catherine Street in Limerick City. Harstonge House (or Oznam House as it is also known) on Harstonge Street can clearly be seen in the video as the band members walk down the street.

During the final chorus, the band members sing atop the Cliffs of Moher, Co. Clare.
