Running Bear

Running Bear - George Jones (乔治·琼斯)

On the bank of the river stood running bear young Indian brave

And on the other side of the river stood his lovely Indian maid

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 loved little white dove

With a love big as the sky

And running 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 the little white dove oh 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 she 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 their happy hunting 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
