Years may come, Years may Go  (KDM 174)  Jeffrey Garbutt  (Herman’s Hermits) 1971

OPENER

Join Hands,Circle Left

Let's take a look behind, and see what we can find
The Men Star Right one time and go

Allemande Left, Weave the Ring

Last year has come and gone

Swing my lady here and Promenade
And what's it now to me? History

FIGURE

Heads Square Thru 4

* Whenever I review … Make a Right-Hand Star with you

Heads Star Left one time and go, with the Sides a Right and Left Thru

Half Sashay, Corner Swing, Promenade home

Some go fast (very fast), some go slow (oh so slow)

Alternative lyrics:

* It wasn't always smooth …. Make a Right Hand Star with you

* Some heartaches I don't doubt …. Makes a Right Hand Star about

* Whatever may come true …. Make a Right Hand Star with you

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Sides Face Grand Square

Years may come (years may come), Years may go (years may go)
Some go fast (very fast), Some go slow (oh so slow)

Join hands, Circle Left
Some are good (oh so good), Some are bad (very bad)

Allemande Left, Promenade
For each one (for what comes), Just be glad (let’s be glad)

TAG

Swing her there

       For each one (for what comes), Just be glad (let’s be glad)

ORIGINAL LYRICS

Let's take a look behind and see what we can find.
Last year has gone for everyone, passed with time.
What happened to us then can't happen once again.
And what's it now to me? History.


Years may come (years may come), years may go (quickly go).
Some go fast (very fast), some go slow (oh so slow).
Some are good (very good), some are bad (very sad).
For each one (for what comes) just be glad (let’s be glad).


Whenever I review my lovin' times with you

I wouldn't change a single page we've lived through.
It wasn't always smooth; sometimes we'd jump the groove.
We've shed some tears and then loved again.


Years may come (years may come), years may go (quickly go).
Some go fast (very fast), some go slow (oh so slow).
Some are good (very good), some are bad (very sad).
For each one (for what comes) just be glad (let’s be glad).


Some heartaches I don't doubt, life's sure to dish us out.
We'll beat the lot and that is what life's all about.
Whatever may come true, ahead for me and you

Some day it all will be memories.
