He wanted to sell me a diamond
He said it was conflict free
Was such a beautiful concept
That such a thing could be
See it shining on the velvet
Faceted fire lying there
While I listen to a couple arguing
Three feet behind my chair
Bitterness soaks their voices
It's been riding them for years
Anger they keep on carrying
Old hurt words in their ears
Sell me a diamond, I have to know
If this transaction is the key to letting go
Empty my pockets, you'll find a ring
Is there a crime if no one loses anything
Sell me a diamond, one fluid moment
And seven crows above could be an omen
Sell me a diamond
I'll just stop watching news I guess
You know that would be a gift
Just listen to children laughing
And give myself a lift
And maybe I'll see somebody
Kind to someone in the street
And I will give this gift to
The next diamond soul I meet
Sell me a diamond, one fluid moment
You know seven crows above could be an omen
Empty my pockets, you'll find a ring
Is there a crime if no one loses anything
Sell me a diamond, I have to know
If this transaction is the key to letting go
Sell me a diamond
Makes conflict free sound good to me
Makes conflict free sound good to me
Makes conflict free sound good to me
Makes conflict free sound good to me

David Van Cortlandt Crosby (Los Angeles, 14 agosto 1941 – Santa Monica, 18 gennaio 2023) è stato un chitarrista, cantautore e musicista statunitense. Considerato uno dei pilastri della musica folk-rock americana, Crosby ha raggiunto fama internazionale come membro fondatore dei Byrds negli anni '60, gruppo che ha contribuito a definire il suono del folk rock con successi come "Mr. Tambourine Man" e "Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season)". Dopo la sua esperienza con i Byrds, Crosby ha formato un duo di successo con Stephen Stills e Graham Nash, noto come Crosby, Stills and Nash. Il trio ha pubblicato alcuni degli album folk-rock più influenti degli anni '70, tra cui "Déjà Vu" (1970) e "4 Way Street" (1971), caratterizzati da armonie vocali impeccabili e testi introspettivi. Crosby ha continuato a registrare musica in solitario e con diverse formazioni musicali fino alla fine della sua carriera, lasciando un'eredità significativa nella storia della musica americana.
