Nothing Matches the Feeling

(Amelia's Journey)
2003-10-01
Doug Schenker-John Starr
In May 1932 Amelia flies solo across the Atlantic and lands in a field outside Culmore, Ireland. She tells the Irish of her journey and they listen and dance ending Act 1.
“NOTHING MATCHES THE FEELING [THE JOURNEY’S NOT OVER REPRISE]”

Nothing matches the feeling of racing with the wind.
Flying high through the clouds breaking free again
From that old rat race and earth’s cacophony
Like birds that fly, it’s where I know I want to be

CHORUS:
The journey’s not over. The journey’s begun
Searching for new worlds beyond the rising sun
Chasing a rainbow, sometimes just for fun
The journey’s not over. The journey’s begun.

(repeat Chorus)
