Flows back (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ebbs

'flows back' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ebbs that I've seen before include "Goes out like tide" , "fades away" , "Declines gradually" , "Flows back or recedes" , "Subsides" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Newsday, the LA Times, the Universal, the USA Today and the Sydney Morning Herald.
