Music video

The song's accompanying music video was directed by Colin Tilley. It premiered on Tinder on March 23, 2015.[10] The video features glamour model Tianna Gregory as Derulo's love interest in the video.[11]

The video opens with Derulo and his love interest reclining minimally clothed in their respective beds. With a fan on and most of the sheets having been pulled off Derulo's red bed, he sings that it is "too hard to sleep". He hails a cab to "get me there fast" and soon hooks up with his lady waiting on a blue bed. The video also features Derulo singing and dancing on a stage to his lover.[12]
