Lyrics

I am buying myself flowers these days
Spent too much of my money on a yellow rose bouquet
To put on my windowsill, my new empty space to fill
I am buying myself flowers these days
I am buying myself wine to drink alone
Two buck chuck Cabernet Sauvignon
Today I found our old corkscrew, so I know what I need to do
I am buying myself wine to drink alone
I’m a 21st century woman who’s crying like a little child
Wearing my poor heart on my shopping cart in the frozen food aisle
And I don't know what the hell I’m doing, spending my hard-earned money for
When the truth is I just can’t afford to miss you any more
I am buying myself a ticket for the train
Haven’t left this town since you went away
I’m still so pissed that you got to leave, got a change of scenery
I am buying myself a ticket for the train
I’m a 21st century woman who’s crying like a little child
At the same train station where we’d cheat the turnstile
And I don’t know what the hell I’m doing, spending my hard-earned money for
When the truth is I just can’t afford to miss you any more
I am buying myself fresh cotton sheets
Got a low thread count but the price is pretty sweet
See I got to hold on to our set, and they won’t let me forget
So I am buying myself fresh cotton sheets
Got to hold on to our corkscrew, but I couldn't hold on to you
So I am buying myself wine, buying myself time
Giving myself space, a little love, a little grace
I am buying myself flowers these days
I am buying myself flowers these days
