First version I heard of this was with Santana. It wasn't until a couple years later that I found The Zombies had done it originally a decade before Santana... so here it is...

Well no one told me about her
The way she lied
Well no one told me about her
How many people cried

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well let me tell you about the way she looked
The way she acted, the color of her hair
Her eyes were soft and cool, her eyes were clear and bright
But she's not there

Well no one told me about her
What could I do
Well no one told me about her
Though they all knew

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well let me tell you about the way she looked
The way she acted, the color of her hair
Her eyes were soft and cool, her eyes were clear and bright
But she's not there

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well let me tell you about the way she looked
The way she acted, the color of her hair
Her eyes were soft and cool, her eyes were clear and bright
But she's not there
