The video for the duet shows off the couple (and other couples) riding a mechanical bull in the desert and longingly singing to each other.
“The very first thought was you can’t do that and then the more I thought about just the music part of it, it made perfect sense, even if I didn’t know Katy, it would have made perfect sense,” he said. “I went in the other room [and] called her phone.”
The singer said most everything in the video just happened naturally.
