Allen lists Karen Carpenter, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Ryan Adams, and Prince as her influences. She co-wrote Echosmith's song, “Goodbye,” the lead single from their second studio album, Inside a Dream.
Young Summer presents a new side of artistry for Bobbie Allen. “It's extremely honest music,” she explains. “It really is no-holds-barred in its honesty. It feels that way when you hear it because that concept is very deliberate. That's the thread that brings all of the songs together and makes them related. It all comes from a very sincere and honest place.”

Fever Dream
Young Summer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and easily I said goodbye
digging up the past
wondering where you are tonight
I can't breathe
tucked under these sheets
I can't breathe
turning over time here in my sleep
In this fever dream
sleeping on the side you used to be
In this fever dream
Sevens stories higher
than I was this time last year
seperate the thread
of what I always hoped and feared
I can't breathe
tucked under these sheets
I can't breathe
with you this far from me
turning over time here in my sleep
In this fever dream
sleeping on the side you used to be
In this fever dream
turning over time here in my sleep
In this fever dream
sleeping on the side you used to be
In this fever dream
Wake up one day
will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
I can't breathe
tucked under these sheets
I can't breathe
with you this far from me
turning over time here in my sleep
I can't breathe
In this fever dream
sleeping on the side you used to be
I can't breath
In this fever dream
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
wake up one day will you wait on me
stay close by when I'm hard to keep
In "Fever Dream" by Young Summer, the lyrics describe the feeling of longing for a past love. The singer has found some old written words, perhaps old love letters or diary entries, and in doing so has had to say goodbye to the past. She is digging up memories and wondering where her past lover is tonight. This causes her anxiety, as she can't breathe under the weight of her emotions. The singer is lost in her thoughts, turning over time in her sleep, with the fever dream of her past lover beside her. She is yearning for this person and the comfort they once provided, even though now they are far from her.
The lyrics also allude to the passage of time. The singer is now seven stories higher than she was last year, meaning that she has physically and emotionally grown. She is now separating the threads of hope and fear that have been woven into her past relationship. The singer is asking her past lover to wake up one day and wait for her, to stay close by when she is hard to keep. She wants this person to be there for her, even though they are now apart, and she is struggling to cope with this loss.
This song is a poignant and emotional reflection on the pain of lost love. It echoes the feelings of many people who have longed for a past relationship, yet struggle with the reality of their separation.
