And why do we believe that there is a "tie or connection" between cause & effect?
Because the belief arises entirely from experience [a posteriori, not a priori], namely, the experience of finding that two events (cause & effect) are "constantly conjoined" with each other.
Even though the perception is based on experience, It is not logically necessary that a particular effect follows a particular cause; it is just a fact of experience.
