It's stuck in the Earth gravitaional pull.
Another answer:
Because the Earth has a gravitational pull on the moon. Actually, the Earth and moon revolve around each other common center of gravity. Without the Earth in it's way the moon would just head off in a straight line. Instead, as the moon tries to move away, the Earth does two remarkable things. One, it pulls the moon towards Earth, and two, the Earth moves out of the moon's way.
