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
