Running Bear歌词

On the banks 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 as 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 it was too wide

He couldn't reach little White Dove

Waiting there on the other side

In the moonlight he could see her

Throwing kisses 'cross the wave

Her little heart was beating faster

Waiting there for her brave

Running Bear loved little White Dove

With a love as 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 she did the same

As they swam out to each other

Through the swirling stream they came

Now their hands touched and their lips met

The swirling river it pulled them down

Now they'll always be together

In their happy hunting ground

Running Bear loved little White Dove

With a love as big as the sky

Running Bear loved little White Dove

With a love that couldn't die
