Taking into concept the GRAVITY of the situation and the GRAVITY of the question I would have to say with GRAVITY that the force pulling the water in towards the earth is GRAVITY!

The earth is round because it is so large that the gravity crushes it into a sphere, the shape of least resistence and where all the gravity pulls equally at all points. Water doesn't drip off for the same reason, the gravity holds it on. As there is no gravity in space there is nothing to pull the water away from the surface of the planet.

The gravity won't be able to finished or push water and all issues that bypass up will finished down, water is liquid we cant carry them, and the character of water will continuously working down while the exterior is around it somewhat is physics regulation not with the aid of mind's eye. Water will behave in point area or a airplane floor that the water won't be able to go out, like the lake and sea, consequently we've super of sea. If the Earth is around we've no water, no sea no lake and we cant survive. If the earth is around the water will drop to the area not interior the backside of the earth.

Gravity pulls everything to the center of the earth (the center of the mass, as most of the earth's mass is directly below you, on the opposite side of the earth), so therefore everything is pulled directly toward the center

There is gravity every where. The earth acts like it has a magnetic field on it.

because of the earths gravity

gravity.it pulls the water the water to the centre of the earth.

Very good point of view, I agree with you its not only gravity, may be the size of earth doesn;t make ocean foll and where if its going to foll in no where no atractive force from space only on earth.

because it is moving in a constant rotational motion, which is the reason everything doesn't just float off it. AKA gravity!
