What a beautiful voice...

Truly beautiful, and dare I say now I've listened to this a thousand times, think of this version as the one.
Goosebumps and tears sometimes.
Not just for dads but for mums too!!
-
I believe hes asking his son to play with him, trying to bond.
Like being a train to carry him or chase him.
Role play to brighten his son up.
There can be other thoughts behind the line.
But often in music a person wants to get a sentiment across but also needs to rhym, so it could be a compromise and expect the folks to hopefully get it.
I would like to think I got the intention close at least since its what I get out of it.

This gives me goosebumps.

This is such a good cover and I really like your whole group! A Capella doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
