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
