Because I want them to sail off into the sunset, dammit!
No, seriously, what's my deal? Three mixes in less than a month? Prison Break being off the air is REALLY doing something to me! It's made me weirdly productive in the fandom. And while I was trying to write some self-indulgent hiatus smut, the idea for this mix just kinda came to me. Based on all of the songs I was listening to for inspiration while writing. I had my season one mix and my season two mix and if there were other seasons I'm sure I'd have mixes for those, too. But there isn't. So this one is purely based on inferences and allusions on the show and my own fluff-loving heart.
This mix is what I would call one of the future that I think every Michael/Sara fan secretly (or not-so-secretly) wants for them. Their happily ever after where they live somewhere tropical (Baja? Panama?), lounge around in hammocks, drink beer and finally forget about everything that has gone wrong in their lives because being together makes everything right. This mix is, therefore, made of all of the songs that make me think of Michael and Sara sometime down the road when they're happy and content and living the life they probably often thought they'd never get to live. Sweet, sexy, and slightly schmoopy but with certain relationship progression. I hope. That is the premise of this mix but you all can be the judge.
I test my mixes on myself before I post them and I must say that today I drove home down back roads, windows open, music blaring and I think I love it in its entirety for this beautiful weather we've been having here! Hopefully some of you can enjoy a mellow summer mix that makes you all warm and squishy inside, too :)

1.
Closer - Goapele Sometimes you just have to let it go
Leaving all my fears to burn and die
Push them all away so I can move on
Closer to my dreams
Feel it all over my being
Close your eyes and seek what you believe
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
2.
Desire - Ryan Adams With no secrets, no obsession
This time I'm speeding with no direction
Without a reason, what is this fire?
Burning slowly, my one and only desire
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
3.
Break Me - Jewel I will meet you in some place
Where the light lends itself to soft repose
I will let you undress me
But I warn you, I have thorns like any rose
And you could hurt me with your bare hands
You could hurt me with the sharp end of what you say
But I'm lost to you now and there's no amount of reason
That could save me
So break me, take me, just let me feel your arms again
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
4.
Black Roses Red - Alana Grace Drowning in my loneliness
How long must I hold my breath?
So much emptiness inside, I could fill the deepest sea
I reach to the sky as the moon looks on
My one last tear has come and gone
Time to let your love rain down on me
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
5.
Crush - Dave Matthews Band Lovely lady, I am at your feet
Oh God, I want you so badly
And I wonder this - could tomorrow be so wondrous
As you there, sleeping?
Let's go drive 'til morning comes
Watch the sun rise and fill our souls up
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Delicate - Damien Rice We might live like never before
There's nothing to give
Well, how can we ask for more?
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
7.
I Need You - Tim McGraw & Faith Hill I wanna get lost in some corner booth - Cantina, Mexico
I wanna dance to the static of an A.M. radio
I wanna wrap the moon around us
Lay beside you skin-on-skin
Make love till the sun comes up, till the sun goes down again
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
8.
The Beauty Of Who You Are - Marc Broussard There's a faith you're saving for a rainy day
I could use right now
There's a way you move my soul to sing
Only you know how
You are sensual salvation
You're the holiest temptation
Baby, I'm never, never, never gonna be the same
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
9.
Let's Make a Night to Remember - Bryan Adams I love the way you move tonight
Beads of sweat drippin' down your skin
Me lying here and you lying there
Our shadows on the wall and our hands everywhere
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
10.
Insatiable - Darren Hayes We never sleep, we're always holdin' hands
Kissin' for hours, talkin', makin' plans
I feel like a better man just being in the same room
We never sleep, there's just so much to do
Too much to say, can't close my eyes when I'm with you
Insatiable, the way I'm loving you
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
11.
Forever Love (Digame) - Anna Nalick When you smile with those eyes
Baby, it's like you place a finger on my heart
And your lips next to mine
Make me think that maybe Heaven's where you are
God, don't send to me your angels
I just wanna hear you say again...
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
12.
Sweetness in Starlight - Matt Wertz And your touch is a potent medicine
Oh, knocks me out with just one shot
I've never seen such strong elixir, baby
Fixes all that I'm not
You fix all that I'm not, yeah...
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
13.
True Companion - Marc Cohn So don't you dare and try to walk away
I've got my heart set on our wedding day
I've got this vision of a girl in white
Made my decision that it's you, alright
When I take your hand, I'll watch my heart set sail
I'll take my trembling fingers and I'll lift up your veil
Then I'll take you home and with wild abandon
Make love to you just like a true companion
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
14.
Into The Mystic - The Wallflowers We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonny boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
