WHATEVER HAPPENED TO YOU
Theme from the TV series "What Became Of The Likely Lads" (1973)
(Music: Mike Hugg / Lyrics: Ian La Frenais)

Highly Likely - 1973



Oh, what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
What became of the people we used to be

Tomorrow's almost over
Today went by so fast
It's the only thing to look forward to, the past

There was a time when time didn't matter
Only the time of day
And livin' was livin' in hope
Which would never pass away

Worry was a Monday morning
When weekend was done
Fear was the fear of bein' 
What we had become

Oh, what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
And what became of the people we used to be

Tomorrow's almost over
Today went by so fast
It's the only thing to look forward to, the past

You say I'm a fool in a fool's paradise
Lettin' my life slip away
Waitin' with my head in the clouds
Lookin' for a sunny day

Never go back to tell me
It's the worst thing you can do
But I must go back till I find out 
Where it is I'm goin' to

Oh, what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
What became of the people we used to be

Tomorrow's almost over
Today went by so fast
It's the only thing to look forward to, the past

Oh, what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
What became of the people we used to be

Oh, what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
And  what became of the people
