"How It Hits You"
by Jon Anderson
from the album "Three Ships"


Who brought this lovely morning?
Dancing in my head, can't help but call you.
Dancing in my head, can't help but call you.

Who brought these silent teardrops?
Running through my head, can't help but think of you.
Running through my head, can't help but think of you.

You know the heavens, they'll be dancing,
All for singing of the glory of this very day.
And in my heart of hearts,
I knew it from the very start,
That you'd be with me.
Aim to jump high.
Aim to jump high.
Are you with me?
Are you with me?

Oh, how it hits you.
It's so amazing how it connects you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
The spirit of love will always connect you.
Always connect you...

Who changed this way of thinking?
Dancing in my head, can't help but touch you.
Dancing in my head, can't help but touch you.

Who stopped my heart from crying?
Running through my head, can't help but think of you.
Running through my head, can't help but think of you.

I opened the door, I was mesmerized,
By the power of love that shown around me and within me.
And in my heart of hearts,
I knew it from the very start,
That you'd be with me.
Aim to jump high.
Aim to jump high.
Are you with me?
Are you with me?

Oh, how it hits you.
It's so amazing how it connects you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
The power of love will always connect you.

Letting go can be easy.
Letting go, it will help you.
Letting go, it's so easy.
Letting go, it can help you.
There's rivers to cross,
Rivers to cross.
Keep it up.
Keep it up.
Just look at it.

(Ding dong merrily on high,
In Heaven the bells are ringing.
Ding dong hear it in the sky,
In Heaven the angels singing.)

(Oh, how it hits you.
So amazing how it connects you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
The spirit of love will always connect you.)

Oh, let it hit you.
So amazing how it connects you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
The spirit of love will always connect you.

Let it go, how it hits you.
So amazing how it connects you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
The spirit of love will always connect you.

Let it go, how it hits you.
Spirit of love will always connect you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
Spirit of love will always connect you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
Spirit of love will always connect you.
Let it go, how it hits you.
Spirit of love will always connect you.

Anyone knows his first awesome band "yes" in the 70s?

The Voice of Jon Anderson is one of the outstanding Voices in the World. He make my life beautifull everyday when i hear his songs. Also his work with Vangelis (Jon & Vangelis). I want much more of those beloved People like him...they make a better earth!

Cheers an old (48) Fan of him

@druidkat7 This song shows the end of a path and can also make you feel it, it has always gone directly very deep inside of me, but it's not that easy to start walking that path, and, to be honest, I'm still not walking it.

The whole album rocks, but How It Hits You, next to the title track has to be my absolute favorite! The song really captures how Jon Anderson has inspired my life...that Cosmic Love from him...literally, "How It Hits You"!"
