Vctory:
The word "go" is used many different ways. It is very common in idioms, such as:
How's it going? - meaning - How are you doing?

There goes the bell. --> The bell is heard in the distance, so we use "there". It means that the bell is starting to ring. We can hear it, but we cannot see it.

There goes the thief. --> The thief is running away, so we use "there"

Here are the books. --> The books are in my hand, and I am giving them to you, so we use "here".

Here comes your husband. --> Your husband is coming closer to us and we can see him, so we use "here".

Here you are. --> The same meaning as "here are the books", but more general. I am giving you something.

Here it is. --> I just found something, and it is nearby.

Summary:
Use "there" for going away, or being at a distance.
Use "here" for coming closer, or being close by.

Vctory OngPlease tell when we should use "here",when we should use "there".

When observing movement, use Here comes for motion toward you and There goes for motion away from you.

If there is no motion, There goes ... may imply that you have just heard something.

There goes the bell. ~ I have just heard the bell.

Here you are and Here it is are used when handing an object to someone.
