Abstract: Let $f$ and $g$ be weight $k$ holomorphic cusp forms and let $S_f(n)$ and $S_g(n)$ denote the sums of their first $n$ Fourier coefficients. Hafner and Ivic [HI], building on Chandrasekharan and Narasimhan [CN], proved asymptotics for $su{m}_{nleqX}lvert{S}_f(n)ver{t}^2$ and proved that the Classical Conjecture, that $S_f(X)ll{X}^{frack-12+frac14+epsilon}$, holds on average over long intervals. In this paper, we introduce and obtain meromorphic continuations for the Dirichlet series $D(s,S_{f}imes{S}_g)=sum{S}_f(n)overline{S}_g(n)n^{-(s+k-1)}$ and $D(s,S_{f}imesoverline{S}_g)=su{m}_n{S}_f(n)S_g(n)n^{-(s+k-1)}$. Using these meromorphic continuations, we prove asymptotics for the smoothed second moment sums $sum{S}_f(n)overline{S}_g(n)e^{-n/X}$, proving a smoothed generalization of [HI]. We also attain asymptotics for analogous smoothed second moment sums of normalized Fourier coefficients, proving smoothed generalizations of what would be attainable from [CN]. Our methodology extends to a wide variety of weights and levels, and comparison with [CN] indicates very general cancellation between the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function $L(s,fimesg)$ and shifted convolution sums of the coefficients of $f$ and $g$. In forthcoming works, the authors apply the results of this paper to prove the Classical Conjecture on $lvert{S}_f(n)ver{t}^2$ is true on short intervals, and to prove sign change results on ${S_f(n)}_{ninmathbbN}$.
