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-a 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 ragin' 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 huntin' 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...
