Another Lonely Christmas 12 inch lyrics -need the answer

Okay!

I use to know this, but on the 12-inch of Another Lonely Christmas there's one verse that says:

I pay money to see you

laughing, dancing, silhouette

_______ appeal

Sometimes I hear you smiling

Sometimes I think you're here.

Please somebody, feel in the blank after the word silhouette.

Merry Christmas to all. It's still Christmas Eve in Chicago.

I'd pay money just to see your

laughing, dancing silhouette

upon the pier

Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Remember the time we swam naked
In your father's pool?
Boy he was upset that night
But boy was that ever cool

Remember the night we played pokeno 4 money
And u robbed me blind
Remember how u used 2 scream so loud
Cuz u hated that number 9

Hey, I saw your sister skating on the lake
This afternoon
Good Heaven how she's grown
She swoons the boy skaters she's so tall

But of all your father's children
All your father's children, baby
U know, u are the finest of them all
U are brighter than the northern star

Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u, u should've been there
U see, of all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

My momma used 2 say
Always trust your lover
Now I guess that only applies 2 her

Cuz baby u promised me
Baby u promised me u'd never leave
Then u died on the 25th day of December
Oh baby

Last night I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, baby, u, u should've been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

Your father said it was pnemonia
Your mother said it was strep
But the doctor said u were dead
And I, I say its senseless

Every Christmas night 4 7 years now
I drink banana daquaris 'til I'm blind
As long as I can hear u smilin' baby
U won't hear my tears
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Yeah, mine
Yeah
Another lonely Christmas is mine

Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there, yeah
Cuz all the 1's I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Another Lonely

Thank you! Boy, was I a tad bit off. I use to sing "silhouette woman appeal" and what he was saying is "upon the pier." This is why Prince laughs so hard at we the fans that mess up his lyrics.

This isn't the 12-inch version incognito was referring to, is it? This is just the edited "single" version from The Hits/B-Sides.

Do u still like banana daiquiris

Boy we used 2 get so tight

Oooh, u used 2 get so horny

U made me leave the lights on

I paid money just 2 see your

Laughing dancing silhouette upon the pier

Sometimes I think I hear u smiling

Sometimes I think u are here

I find myself holding every pillow

In the bed u and I used 2 share

Last night I spent another lonely Christmas

Darlin' u should be, u should be there

Cuz u see....

Don't hate me 'cause I'm NOT beautiful
