How I would make this a music video:
I think that when producing my music video I think that the song would fit a performance/narrative style, as the lyrics tell a story about a guy and his commitment to his girlfriend, and how he wants to spend the rest of his life with her.

My vision is to have my artist performing in a studio, on a black screen, singing into a recording microphone, in the streets and sitting on a wall, but this will be small areas that will be cut to, the main body of the music video, I see the visuals interpreting the lyrics, having a couple sitting in the park, and flashbacks to where he met the girl. Although, the song could also be about cheating looking deeper into the lyrics these could be some excuses that he is saying to another girl. Using the alternative narrative could be added as a surprise at the end of the music video as it is not something we could be expecting and then this would add rewatchability to the composition. 

Throughout the song there is a "clap" sound, Whenever I hear this I imagine a cut to the next scene so the tempo of the song is reasonably quick, the "clap" sound isn't consistent in some parts of the song, but this means that some scenes could be longer also following my brainstorm of the alternative narrative each time the song has the "clap" sound it could crosscut to a different scene where he is with different girls. Towards the end of the song before the chorus repeats itself 6 times there is a relatively large break of approximately 15 seconds where we hear dead silence and this could be where he is caught as this breaks the tension that was built throughout the music video.

At the moment the I have a lot of different ideas about the style and content of this music video, the ideas above are a brief vision of mine, but I think the music video will be going in that direction.
