[Verse 1] I beat the old game, crossed the finish line They called my name, took the photograph But one small marker on a side-road map Still keeps me wondering what came after that [Pre-Chorus] A locked blue door, a note in the grass One last little task I let go past Why does that tiny thread still pull me back? [Chorus] I still wonder what was waiting there One more turn, one more answer in the air I won the crown, I took the long way home But that small unfinished road won’t leave me alone Tap it, turn it, let the question run The biggest win is done and gone I still wonder what was waiting there That little side quest follows everywhere [Verse 2] A coin I missed beneath the market stairs A stranger’s name I meant to ask about The grand parade is folded into frames But little loose ends keep their quiet flame [Pre-Chorus] A map half-read, a gate left shut A simple thing I never followed up Why does that tiny thread still pull me back? [Chorus] I still wonder what was waiting there One more turn, one more answer in the air I won the crown, I took the long way home But that small unfinished road won’t leave me alone Tap it, turn it, let the question run The biggest win is done and gone I still wonder what was waiting there That little side quest follows everywhere [Bridge] Maybe it was nothing, maybe it was gold Maybe just a story I was meant to know I can’t replay the day or change the route Still, that little question keeps finding me out [Final Chorus] I still wonder what was waiting there One more turn, one more answer in the air I won the crown, I took the long way home But that small unfinished road won’t leave me alone Tap it, turn it, let the question run The biggest win is done and gone I still wonder what was waiting there That little side quest follows everywhere [Outro] One more turn… what was waiting there?
