Running Bear

*Chorus: Running Bear loves Little White Dove with a love big as the sky.
Running Bear loves Little White Dove with a love that never dies.

On the one side of the river, stood Running Bear, young and brave.
On the other side of the river stood a lovely maiden he did see.
Little White Dove was her name, such a lovely maid was she
But their tribes fought with each other, so their love could never be.
*
Running Bear dove in the water, Little White Dove did the same.
And they swam out to each other through the raging waters they came.
First their eyes met then their lips met, the raging waters brought them down.
Now they'll always be together in that happy hunting ground.
*
