"Here She Comes Now" is a song released by the American rock band the Velvet Underground in November 1967, from their second studio album White Light/White Heat. As the shortest song on the album, the performance and mix of the song are both considered simple and traditional, making it somewhat distinct from the other five songs on the album, all of which contain some degree of experimental or avant-garde elements in terms of sound.

"Here She Comes Now" was recorded during the recording sessions for White Light/White Heat in September 1967 at Scepter Studios in Manhattan.Lou Reed originally intended the song to be sung by Nico, who had sung it on a few occasions during the Exploding Plastic Inevitable events, however her collaboration with the group had ended before recording for White Light/White Heat had begun. Subsequently, Reed had decided to take over vocals for the song. The song was first demoed in two takes during the winter of 1967 by Reed, Sterling Morrison and John Cale at their Ludlow Street apartment. In 1995, the demo was released on the box set Peel Slowly and See.

The double entendre of the title has been interpreted by writers to mean that the song is about sex and the female orgasm. Due to the group's fondness of writing songs related to drug use, the word "she" has also been regarded as a metaphor for drugs and "awaiting an intoxication that fails to occur". This is further suggested by the feminine code names for drugs such as "Lucy" for LSD.Gerard Malanga and Victor Bockris, authors of Uptight: The Velvet Underground Story, described the song as a "rather pretty 4-line dissertation on the possibility that a girl might come". Another common interpretation is that the song is about Reed's Ostrich guitar. The line "She's made out of wood" and Reed's habit of exclaiming "Here she comes now" before soloing on various live recordings and performances lend credence to this.
