The Sun doesn't 'come up,' infact the Earth spins around. So imagine the Sun and to the left there is the Earth. The side that faces the Sun is experiencing day. The other side of the Earth is turned away from the the Sun, thus is experiencing darkness. Of course, we don't stay in dark/day all the time, and so the Earth spins around on its tilted axis. The Earth spins west to east, and that explains the Sun rising in east and setting in west. The Sun only comes up this way because the Earth is spinning. Whilst the Earth is spinning, it is also orbiting the Sun.
