Cradle Of Love Lyrics

Cradle Of Love lyrics

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

CHORUS
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 blowing kisses 'cross the waves
Her little
heart was beating faster, waiting there for her
brave

CHORUS

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

CHORUS

(With a love that couldn't die)
