On the banks of the river

Stood Runnin' Bear, young Indian brave

On the other side of the river

Stood his lovely Indian maid

Little White Dove was-a her name

Such a lovely sight to see

But their tribes fought with each other

So their love could never be



Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove

With a love big as the sky

Runnin' 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



Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove

With a love big as the sky

Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove

With a love that couldn't die



Runnin' 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 ragin' river pulled them down

Now they'll always be together

In that happy hunting ground



Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove

With a love big as the sky

Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove

With a love that couldn't die
