This is where we can post song lyrics we've always heard correctly but that we've, at some point in our lives, misunderstood.

In Kate Bush's December Will Be Magic Again, when she sings, "The White City, she is so beautiful," I always thought she was referring to White City Stadium in that there London.
It later dawned on me that it's more likely she was referring to a city that's covered in snow.

Yes, that does make more sense. I assumed she was referring to Television Centre.

I too have always thought she was singing about White City in London. But of course it would be snow in such a song! She even sings the word snow at another point.
