Because the earth's atmosphere creates consistent heat above freezing but bellow evaporating temperature, so the water doesn't freeze but is always effected by gravity. Comets and meteorites that impact earth also carry water. SOME water also melts when in direct sunlight (though not all if the planet/object does not have an atmosphere).
