Music video
[edit]A music video was released and featured Morgan Freeman.
Freeman narrates at the beginning and goes to Azar, who is getting ready to head to work on a ship along the Delta and by the time he arrives at the dock, he finds out that Joe hasn't arrived yet and goes around the town asking the residents if they have seen him, which to no avail.
While at the coffee shop, a resident alerts the town that Joe was killed in an accident with an oncoming train, which shocks Azar. The video cuts to Azar and the town's residents at Joe's funeral and Azar later returns to his job on the riverboat.
The video concludes with Freeman doing a short narration.
