Because a sine wave resembles a side-to-side wave when you plot it, it doesn't imply that anything is really swaying sideways. 
When all is said in done, a wave is only an example in some physical amount that engenders through space. The physical amount could be something obvious, similar to the transverse dislodging of a string or the longitudinal pressure of a smooth, or it could be something undetectable, similar to a drive or the electromagnetic field. It can be something which has a bearing, similar to the cases in the past sentence, or it can be something which has no course, similar to weight or thickness. It relies on upon the medium and the kind of wave.
