Twelve Notes - Back and Forth

It's been a year since I moved to this city, I'm doing well, I guess
But I find myself signing my name with my old address
I bounce between the present and the past
Now and then my hometown draws me back
And I'm not sure if by now I belong here or there

Back and forth, back and forth
I'm swinging on this rocking chair
Back and forth, back and forth
Moving but going nowhere
Is there a list of dos and don'ts
To get me where I want

I'm holding on to my steady job to pay the rent
But I got dreams and I've been working on my backup plan
I bounce between the two sides of myself
I'll get crazy if I don't get a chance
To eventually do for a living what I do best

Back and forth, back and forth
I'm swinging on this rocking chair
Back and forth, back and forth
Moving but going nowhere
Is there a list of dos and don'ts
To get me where I want

Wonder why I gotta be in two places at once
What am I missing or am I living twice as much
What do I gotta do? Yeah, what do I gotta do

Back and forth, back and forth
I'm swinging on this rocking chair
Back and forth, back and forth
Moving but going nowhere
Maybe by moving back and forth
I'll end up where I want
