[Verse 1]
Sun shine on the moon shine on the lake
Moon shine on the snow shine on my face
Winter birds go in and out the stars
Okanagan arrowheads under lace
My shining skates still on the ground

[Verse 2]
Silver web go across the mountain top
Mountains lift the hem of the horizon
Pinholes in the black
Some call them stars
Call a little louder—they will answer you

[Chorus]
My shining skates burst into stars
It is a long pirouette
That sends me through this shining night

[Verse 3]
Sun shine on the moon shine on the lake
Velvet comes when all the edges are erased
Hang out the night it is much rounder here
Roll off the night onto the ice
My shining skates still on the ground
[Verse 4]
Crease the earth—the snow fall out of sight
Soft midnight herds go cross the valley
Valley deepen so there comes a lake
Lake go to ice so I can skate

[Chorus]
My shining skates burst into stars
It is a long pirouette
That brings me through this shining night

[Outro]
I always thought that this girl should have left a message for Ogwen and his wife 'cause they were always so worried about Bessie, where Bessie had gone. Anyway this is the story about where Bessie went. And Rebecca Campbell, you come in and you sing with me, and, and uh, I'll try to keep the words straight. Here we go.
