2000年对Within Temptation[内部诱惑乐队]来说是难以忘怀的，因为在12月底发行了第二张专辑“Mother Earth”，这张成为了Within Temptation历史上最为重要的转折点的专辑终于为乐队迎来了命运的转折，乐队收到了各大音乐节的邀请，并且因此而确立了乐队在gothic metal，从“Mother Earth”中我们也看到了Within Temptation风格上明显的改变和提高，在各方面较上张专辑都成熟许多，并且能听出乐团主音Sharon在唱腔上的明显进步，除了音色更为浑美外，在转音及高音表现上也都更显出色！而这张专辑的乐风走向则变得更为柔美，金属成份不但大为地减少，death腔的运用也已不复见，改而加入部份男女唱诗班的合唱演出，曲式的编写可说是针对Sharon所量身订作，完全突显出Sharon的美妙音色。“Our Farewell”几乎是一首纯粹的情歌，Sharon仙乐般缥缈动人的音色为主轴，辅以层叠起伏的配乐，非常具有感染力，伤心失恋的时候少听为妙。

In my hands
A legacy of memories
I can hear you say my name
I can almost see your smile
Feel the warmth of your embrace
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?
Sweet darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are
Never thought
This day would come so soon
We had no time to say goodbye
How can the world just carry on?
I feel so lost when you are not at my sight
But there\'s nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?
Sweet darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are
So sorry your world is tumbling down
I will watch you through these nights
Rest your head and go to sleep
Because my child, this is not our farewell.
This is not our farewell.
