about
Allie, the second release from Jeff Desira's second album, "Summer to Fall" is produced by Chris Manning and features Desira's arrangements for violin, viola and cello, orchestrated by CL Behrens. Allie was written as a heartfelt acknowledgement of a lapse of time, and to a coming of age.
lyrics
Allie - It's funny how quickly you've grown.
If you ever feel all alone - know
You always have me.
And Allie, there's so much that I have to say
There's nothing to stand in our way so
Don't forget me.
Oh - how I've waited for what you might say
And Allie, of all the time searching for you
This is the time I'll get through
And this is what I sing to you
'Cause Allie, I can't keep on holding back tears
The days turn to months, turn to years, so
Don't forget me.
You are the daylight - in a world dark and grey
I'll be there too
Funny how we always knew
Nothing could keep me from you
Making up for the lost time
Giving you this heart of mine
Allie, here we are doing our best
Putting a hard time to rest, so
Please remember
And Allie, there's so much that I have to say
There's nothing to stand in our way, so
Don't forget me

“Jeff is one of my favorite up-and-coming songwriters in the Bay Area. From the first few notes of ANY of his songs its
clear that he knows his craft better than most and has puts tons of thought into his lyrics, melodies and arrangements. Jeff’s songs have a way of conveying the simple experiences of life with honesty, originality and authenticity."
Erudite chamber pop that hearkens back to the elegant and experimental production of the 1960s, swinging from melancholia to playfulness. Bandcamp New & Notable May 13, 2016
In Adrian Snood’s songs, soulful vocals and slow-moving alt-pop swirl together to create something distinctly moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2023
