Running Bear

On the bank of the river stood Running Bear, young Indian brave
 On the other side of the river stood his lovely Indian maid
 Little White Dove was her name, such a lovely sight to see
 But their tribes fought with each other, so their love could never be
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love big as the sky
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love that couldn't die
 He couldn't swim the raging river 'cause the river was too wide
 He couldn't reach Little White Dove waiting on the other side
 In the moonlight he could see her throwing kisses 'cross the waves
 Her little heart was beating faster, waiting there for her brave
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love big as the sky
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love that couldn't die
 Running Bear dove in the water, Little White Dove did the same
 And they swam out to each other, through the swirling stream they came
 As their hands touched and their lips met, the raging river pulled them down
 Now they'll always be together in that happy hunting ground
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love big as the sky
 Running Bear loved Little White Dove
 With a love that couldn't die
