“Somebody to Buy For” lyrics

I can order what I want now
I don't check the price that long
But the waiter keeps on asking
If the other chair is gone
Got a cupboard full of glasses
Only one gets washed at night

Somebody to buy for
Two cups in the cart
Somebody to buy for
That's the missing part

You said don't bring anything fancy
Just some peaches if they're ripe
I spent twenty minutes choosing
Held each one up to the light
Now I'm smiling in the checkout
Like I finally got it right

Somebody to buy for
Two cups in the cart
Somebody to buy for
That's the missing part

It's not about the money
It's the list stuck to my door
Your handwriting asking for something
I never shopped for before

Somebody to buy for
Two cups in the cart
Somebody to buy for
That's the missing part

Somebody to buy for
Two cups in the cart
