I Hear You Now
JON ANDERSON VANGELIS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The look of love was in your eyes
And after we first make love our senses tingle to
The touch oh how we hypnotize
Oh, to get the feeling on and on
Oh, just to get the feeling
Bringing in the morning light
And after all is said and done there's only us
We can make it right
So, our love will carry on and on
Now our love will be free, be free.
And when we play, love don't delay, I hear you now
For what was then, is what is now, anyhow
As I became a guest of love's tune hear again
We'll carry on together like today.
After the first embrace from you I want you too
After the first embrace from you I want you too
The lyrics of "I Hear You Now" by Jon Anderson Vangelis express the passion and deep love between two individuals. The singer describes the moment he first embraces his lover and how he can feel the love in her eyes. As they make love, their senses tingle and they create an intense connection that feels hypnotic. He wants to experience this feeling on and on, and just to have that feeling of deep love forever.
The singer then talks about how when they are together, they feel like they are in heaven, and they carry their love into the morning light. He states that there is nothing that can stand in the way of their love and that they are the only two people in the world when they are together. He knows that their love will carry on, and their bond will remain strong and true.
In the latter part of the song, the singer says that he hears his lover now and that their love will never fade away. He speaks of becoming a "guest of love's tune" and how they will continue together like they are today. The lyrics convey a sense of timeless love that will never die, even in the face of adversity.

This is the song which I'd discovered, and heard for the first time, shortly before learning of my friend Barry's passing. It's a song which will always make me think of him as he enjoys his time in Heaven, May He R.I.P.
He was truly a good and gentle soul, someone who was pure in his compassion and charitable acts.
Over 300 people had attended his funeral service, honoring him through their attendance.
It was an oddly timed discovery for me. I was sitting in a movie theater, alone, and had just finished watching the recently released film, 'Near Death,' which was produced by Angel Studios.
As the end credits had rolled by onscreen, I'd seen that there was a tribute at the end of them.
As I was preparing to say a prayer for those folks, I'd considered the death experience and had wondered who would next to pass amongst my family, friends, and acquaintances.
No sooner had I thought that, than my cell phone had lit up with an incoming text, which was from our mutual friend and which had announced Barry’s passing.
Later that night, I'd written a poetic tribute to him, a eulogy, and had then posted it to his page, his tribute wall, which was hosted by the funeral home in question. His passing had put me into a little bit of a funk, for he was a truly pure, generous, and compassionate soul. He's in Heaven with God, now, so he's doing better than those of us who are still planet bound.
When you have 10 minutes or so of spare time, cuddle up to your spouse and then listen to this transcendental song. Please be sure to watch the screen and listen to the music and lyrics of this wonderfully moving song, for they all combine to warm the heart, intrigue the mind, and stir the soul with emotion.
This is a beautiful, moving, and romantic song. One which is ideal for lovers. In my opinion, this should be one of the official songs for Valentine’s 💝 Day.
Although it's a song for couples, it's a song which will always remind me of my buddy Barry floating majestically through Heaven, so I will always think of him whenever I hear it.
It also makes me think of my first love, my true love, as well.
The compassionate, classy, remarkable, intelligent, and extraordinary lady who I’d fallen in love with, oh so many years ago, and who I’d then driven away from me, owing to a lack of emotional maturity, wisdom, and respect on my part. She was someone who was (and always will be) near and dear to my heart.
So, now, whenever I listen to this song, ‘Ten Years Gone’ by Led Zeppelin, or ‘Your Own Special Way’ by Genesis, I lament the foolishness of my immature actions back then and can’t help but to become melancholy over losing her, for it would’ve been the highest honor, privilege, and humbling experience to have been able to have her as my wife.
It’s odd, when I was younger, I didn’t have much time or patience for being romantic, cuddling, and cherishing a romantic relationship, for I was too self centered and too focused upon my wants and desires and chasing them all down. This is the expense which had caused me to lose my true love, my soul mate. Now that I’ve grown older, and more wise, mature, and responsible, hopefully, I yearn for another chance to make amends to her and to continue on, as before.
Like rings upon a pond of reflection when a stone is thrown into it, that time has passed me by, and so, she’ll always remain a melancholy and lost love for me. A cherished one, nonetheless, though.
A big thank you goes out to Vangelis and Jon Anderson for creating this wonderfully moving song and for making it available to us, as well as to Mr. Falken.
Truly, music is the soundtrack of our lives, the soundtrack which we experience, relax, and adventure throughout our lives to. If you’re looking for similar music to this spectacular song, check out the following artists and albums:
Roxy Music - Avalon
Andreas Vollenweider - Down to the Moon.

I'd say probably one of his best compositions. So weird to hear this song after 40 years. Almost scary how you can get sucked back in time by a song.
@jdmresearch
Absolutely. I’ve very specific memories stemming from this song, spending summers in Argentina. It was a huge hit there. Or my older cousins played it very often anyway.
@lewisner
I've a lot of music like this taped on cassette from when it was in the charts. I would upload it if I could.
@Ethericrose
@@lewisner I have a little machine that transfers the music from tapes on to PC in file form. It belonged to my father and was given to me when he passed away. Its great for transferring audio books too, the one that I used it for was "A Town Called Alice". I no longer use the little machine and would quite happily post it out to you if you could find use for it? Currently it's stuck in a drawer. 😊
