The moon causes the sea to cycle through tides by tugging the water into sort of an oblong circle and spinning it around the earth.
The Sun causes the moon to change "phases" much as it causes the Earth to change days. The moon just turns much slower than the Earth and ends up never actually turning its "face" away from us.
