They've never left. They arrived in the 5th century and became part of the "English" in the 9th/10th century. The period of their rule came to an end with the Norman invasion of 1066 but like much of the nations mongrel history they just merged becoming Anglo-Norman. While the ruling class was Norman and then Anglo Norman the underlying people were considered mostly descended from Anglo saxon (although Jutes, Norse and Celts are all mixed in there as well) and the term has stayed with England.
As you can see from the above, we're just a crazy mixed-up, yet fantastic nation!
