On the banks of the river
Stood one in there, young Indian man
On the other side of the river
Stood his lovely, young Indian man
A 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, love little white dove
With a love as big as the sky
Running bear, love little white dove
With a love that wouldn't die
He couldn't swim across the river
Because the river was too high
He couldn't reach a little white dove
He could see her blowing kisses
Her little heart was beating faster
Waitin' for her engine break
With a love that wouldn't
Running Bear dove in the water
Little White Dove did the same
And they swam out towards
Through the swirling river they came
Yeah, they'll always be together
In that happy hunting ground
With a love big as the sky
With a love that won't die
when I love me has to start
when I love and wanna die
