Yes, the word 'here' does have the long e sound. You can make this sound with the single e with a consonant and a silent e like it does in the word 'here' but you can also make the same sound with the letters e and a together.

An example would be the word 'hear' which you can see sounds like here but looks different and means something entirely different too.
