Toni Braxton buys some of her songs back!!!

Toni Braxton is finally back on solid financial footing -- but it cost her dearly.

Part of the deal Toni made with her creditors to settle her bankruptcy case was that she'd be able to buy back the rights to some of her songs -- including "You're Making Me High," "How Many Ways" and "Always." The price tag was a minimum of $20,000, but there was a catch -- the bidding was open. And according to TMZ, someone was willing to pony up double that amount, and he got a hold of them.

One possible bright spot -- the gossip site says that the guy who bought the rights to the songs didn't get his hands on "Un-Break My Heart."
