It means that something, especially unpleasant or bad, has happened, cant be undone, and can no longer be a consideration. Let it be.

You can say:

Sure, we have had our disagreements in the past, but thats water under the bridge now.

You may wonder why it is like that?

It is believed that this phrases meaning comes from the fact that river flows one direction, once the water passes the bridge it will never pass back.
