December 2001
A Better Day was a personal song inspired by their hardships they dealt with from their fame. It reached their breaking point once contract renewal came and they left with many unanswered questions. This was the three lamenting on their bond previously shared as six, the painful separation that was their breakup, and the subsequent falling out with Lee Sooman, the man who once gave them purpose, a career. Like the bird growing up, it was time for them to fly out of the nest towards better pastures.
It was poetic in a way.
A Better Day why did you leave me
another Way without a word
our beautiful memories
won't come back again
I could not predict our depart will come so easily
We who shared joy and sadness, we who had to break up
The time that won't come back, the time we had together
Those pure and beautiful days, The days that everyone envied us
The time when we never asked for more
To meet you in those dark past was fortunate thing for me
A Better Day why did you leave me
another Way without a word
our beautiful memories
won't come back again
Yo! Days without purpose, in my tired and lonely spirit,
You came to me as a ray of shine, I could not give you up for the world
Words could not express your small and pure look in your eyes
By one kiss the world became mine, and I was happy
Looking at empty space without you, there's something missing deep in my heart
Forgive me for the times when I was unable to do anything for you
A Better Day why did you leave me
another Way without a word
our beautiful memories
won't come back again
I want to go back to last winter when we had loved
But now I realize too much time passed
Time flows too fast, now comes another world of depart
Hot tears coming down two cheeks
The pictures of memory now growing blurry
Toward another world (oh oh oh)
To begin myself again (oh oh oh )
I don't look for you again (oh oh oh)
Erasing you without lingering (oh oh oh)
Toward another world (oh oh oh)
To begin myself again (oh oh oh )
I don't look for you again (oh oh oh)
Erasing you without lingering (oh oh oh)
A Better Day why did you leave me
another Way without a word
our beautiful memories
won't come back again
A Better Day why did you leave me
another Way without a word
our beautiful memories
won't come back again
