Both the moon and Earth move during the roughly 28 day period it takes for the orbit, and because of this, water in the ocean is thrown to the outside, the same as the water in your bucket. The tidal bulge on the opposite side of Earth from the moon is produced by this inertial effect, referred to as centrifugal force.
