“You Think You Know Her” is a song by the American synthpop band Cause&Effect. It was first released as a single in 1990, and was re-released in 1991 by Sedona Recording Company as a promo version. Tracks are identical to the Exile/Nastymix CD single released in 1990; only the remix titles have been renamed.
Early years
Cause & Effect (C&E) were formed in Sacramento, California, United States, consisting of founding members vocalist/guitarist Rob Rowe and vocalist/keyboardist Sean Rowley (August 24, 1969 – November 12, 1992). They originally released their debut in 1990 as a self-titled album on minor label Exile Records. C&E was subsequently picked up by BMG Music subsidiary, Zoo Entertainment, and a reworked version of their album was released in 1991 as Another Minute. Adding drummer Richard Shepherd, the band headed out on tour in late 1992.
Death of Rowley
Just as the fortunes of the band looked promising, co-founding member Sean Rowley died on November 8, 1992 while on tour as the opening act for Information Society. Rowley died during the soundcheck for the tour’s seventh show at Glam Slam, a club opened in 1989 by musician/songwriter Prince in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The cause of death was reported as a result of heart failure brought on by a severe asthma attack. The group cancelled the remainder of their tour and returned home to Sacramento.
A period of contemplation followed. The band was then invited to perform at the sold-out KROQ Acoustic Christmas Show. The Rowe-penned acoustic song “Hollow” was included on a compilation by their record company, Zoo Entertainment. The song was dedicated to Rowley.
Lyric:
Like Children
Rarely seen and never heard
Emotion
Bare your soul you’ll never learn
But don’t ask
why
And you won’t get lied to
Speak to them
softly
It’s something you get used to
(Chorus)
You Think you know Her
But you never
really
Lived a life without her
Couldn’t tell
me
The things she said
The books she read
The way
she looked when the morning came
The time of night that you
held her tight
But you’ll never forget the day she ran
away
I found her all alone lost in a crowd
When
she saw me
I felt so much I cryed aloud
She turned
away
I couldn’t speak to stop her
The only sound
I heard
Was the echo of her laughter
Chorus

The books she read
The way she looked when the
morning came
The time of night that you held her tight
But you’ll never forget the day she ran away
Repeat
To Fade
