Correct Course - New Single by The Honey Badgers

The sea can be rough, the sea can be calm, the sea can be a teacher - all in the same day. Correct Course takes the listener on a waltzing journey through life and love through the lens of an adventure-filled nautical journey. Featuring violin, dulcimer, duo harmonies and more, this folky tune reminds us to follow our inner compass.

Lyrics

Verse 1

I don't see time the same way you do

But I didn't mind the day that you moved

Cross the room in one well measured step

Broke down the armor, now we both accept

Verse 2

Summertime, one hell of a thing

I never thought you'd take that ring, as we

Sailed north for foreign shores, hoping to 

Bring back some stories, treasure, and more

Chorus

Now don't leave those dreams inside of your head

Alone they go nowhere; just lies that misled

So follow the tides, your heart, and the moon

'Cause charting a course is easy with you

Verse 3

Autumn came, brought difficult days

It's all the same; this will happen again 

Travel towards home, chasing the sunset, barely

Alive, but we're really living

Bridge

Someday, when we're old and gray

We'll let out the secret and speak of that day, when we 

Took on water, said our goodbyes

Somehow were saved by Neptune's good grace       
Chorus

So don't leave those dreams inside of your head

Alone they go nowhere; just lies that misled 

So follow the tides, your heart, and the moon

'Cause charting a course is easy with you

'Cause charting a course is easy with you
