Kelsea Ballerini treated fans to a whimsical, pastel-themed music video for her new single, "Heartfirst," on Thursday.

The clip kicks off with a meet-cute, as Ballerini bumps into a handsome stranger while carrying bags of groceries. The two lock eyes, and as the song's first few bars begin, Ballerini is seen careening through the clouds on a roller coaster and singing along to the bubbly melody.

The surreal, fun-loving theme continues through the second verse, as Ballerini plays the part of a craps dealer to a group of brides. In another scene, she sits strumming an acoustic guitar in the desert, a tiger sitting beside her.

The video culminates with Ballerini climbing up a ladder through the clouds until she makes it to the top of a high dive, taking a breath before plummeting off the edge and free-falling through the sky.

"Heartfirst" is the first single off of 28-year-old Ballerini's forthcoming new album, which has not yet been officially announced.
