A beach is a landform along the shoreline of an ocean, sea, lake or river. It usually consists of loose particles which are often composed of rock, such as sand, gravel, shingle, pebbles or cobblestones. The particles comprising the beach are occasionally biological in origin, such as mollusc shells or coralline algae.
Wild beaches are beaches which do not have lifeguards or trappings of modernity nearby, such as resorts and hotels. They are sometimes called undeclared, undeveloped or undiscovered beaches. Wild beaches can be valued for their untouched beauty and preserved nature. They are most commonly found in less developed areas including, for example, parts of Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
Bangladesh is the home of the world's longest natural sandy sea beach, located at Cox's Bazar.
Beaches typically occur in areas along the coast where wave or current action deposits and reworks sediments.
Although the seashore is most commonly associated with the word beach, beaches are found by lakes and alongside large rivers, as well as by the sea or oceans.
Laird Hamilton (born March 2, 1964) is an American big-wave surfer, co-inventor of tow-in surfing, and an occasional fashion and action-sports model. He is married to Gabrielle Reece, a professional volleyball player, television personality, and model. Hamilton and his family split their time between residences in Maui, Hawaii, and Malibu, California.
Laird was born Laird John Zerfas in San Francisco on March 2, 1964, in an experimental salt-water sphere at UCSF Medical Center designed to ease the mother's labor. His Greek birth father, L. G. Zerfas, left the family before his first birthday. While he was an infant, Laird and his mother, Joann (née Zyirek), moved to Hawaii. While still a young boy living on Oahu, Laird met with 1960s surfer Bill Hamilton, a bachelor at the time, on Pūpūkea beach on the North Shore. Bill Hamilton was a surfboard shaper and glasser on Oahu in the 1960s and 1970s and owned a small business handmaking custom, high-performance surfboards for the Oahu North Shore big wave riders of the era. The two became immediate companions. The young Laird invited Bill Hamilton home to meet his mother. Bill Hamilton married Laird's then-single mother, becoming Laird's adoptive father.

Some are winners some are losers and some are fighters till the day they
die some try to make a living some others always give in many are
stopped before they get to try and many others are forced to leave their
countries they lose their families they lose sleep as soon as they are
gone they are forgotten but you see their tears crash on the beach you
can see their tears crash on the beach you can see their tears crash
on... maybe a winner maybe a loser but I'm a fighter till the day I die
it took a lifetime to cross the breadline to be a victim of accusing
eyes and many others are forced to leave their countries they lose their
families they lose sleep as soon as they are gone they're forgotten but
you see their tears crash on the beach you can see their tears crash on
I was on my way, I swear
But I took a wrong turn, there
For I zigged when I should have zagged
It's a somber turn out tonight
Chemistry class
Try to do our part
Something happened in the dark
We bought raincoats and pretty charms
And they did remember this time
To keep it inside
Now we keep the water still
On the broken window sill
For if not we have to move
It is green outside
Where it seems magical
And if nothing works
We'll do nothing
I hope we're on time
And we should'nt look at the sky
The perilous light
We were not allowed outside
And no one could tell us why
I got worried
With shaky hands
So we said the words that we kept
For worrying times
I was on my way, I swear
But I lost my way somewhere
And the trees were glistening
From the silver trickling water
When the rain returns
We had our suspicions
Thinking what my heart confirmed
It is sweet outside
Where it seems magical
And if nothing works
We'll do nothing
Save yourself tonight
Asleep in the dark
Lets all go down to the beach
Breathe in the air, take in the sun
Lie there trying not to notice
What goes on around you
Buried and unseen
I know it wasn`t done on purpose
It rests beneath the surface
Hidden from your view
Lets all stroll into the sea
Washing away the memories
Try to stop yourself from drowning all the fears
surrounding
Everyone you meet
They know
They don`t know I think so
Heaven waits an answer
Prayers are seldom heard
I know it wasn`t done on purpose
It rests beneath the surface
Hidden from your view
They know
They don`t know I think so
Heaven waits an answer
The sunlight beats upon my skin
The ocean's breeze is coming in
Echoes will remind me
Of the past that I can't get behind me
Floating in this whirlpool
Confusion brings me to my knees
The sky above, a dark blue
Holding back the rain that soothes me
Chorus:
Rain fall upon me, my world is far too dry
Rain fall upon me, fall from the sky
Caught in space above me
The moonlight seeks to cover me
Nights like this disgust me
'Cause I can't get the sleep that I need
Keeping clear of this game
And the clown from which it came
Your speechless lips disown me
Wrapped into a blanket of deceit
Chorus:
Rain fall upon me, my world is far too dry
Rain fall upon me, fall from the sky
Wash out with the tide
Day in, day out
Everything the same
The footprints fade
Perhaps the only thing left to remind me
Is the force that guides me is
The salt, the light, the city I left behind
These walls are waterfalls
Beyond what the eye can perceive
Waves and caves under the sea
Some things you just can't deny
The Earth, the skies and waters collide
There's only one thing left to believe
There's just one morning star, one Earth, one sky
One body of water that retains the tides
This one time I can swallow my pride
And give you the thoughts and dreams
In the back of my mind
One last request, you can call it a cry for help
Preferably something I can throw in the air
Instead if I have to die
Let me do it with you
'Cause if we're always together
What have I got to be afraid of?
Chorus:
Rain fall upon me, my world is far too dry
Rain fall upon me, fall from the sky
Rain fall upon me, my world is far too dry
hello hello
i've been waiting, watch you all night
i dont know why
in the morning
i'll be waking wishing i was right
maybe sometimes
in the evening i take you out for dinner and a fight
cant read your mind I cant read your mind
we watched the sun go down and then the moon comes out
aint pictures with your hand
I chase you
i'm your biggest fan
who's gonna catch you now who's gonna catch you now
running so far away so far away x2
my mind is black and blue
it keeps pictures of you
now i know why
you moved away from here
towards another hemisphere
and all i want to be is in your company
i made a mixed tape
with all the songs that you hate
cant read your mind i give up this time
who's gonna catch you now who's gonna catch you now
running so far away so far away x2
oooooh oooh ohhh oooh oooh
oooooh oooh oohh oooh oooh
i heard your voice today
but we last spoke in May
i still miss you
now you're a ghost at sea
drifting peacefully
you'll never come back to me
I read your eulogy
who's gonna catch you now who's gonna catch you now
