“Regenerate ” means “The next time would be destroyed this turn, instead remove all damage from it and tap it. If it’s an attacking or blocking creature, remove it from combat.”
In this case, it's a creature. Regeneration does not bring anything back from the graveyard; it saves it from going there.

I don't see much use for this outside of a fatty deck like Naya.

It's best used in Treefolk decks, but... With 3-6 toughness on average, in how much danger are they of being destroyed, really?

A friend used this thinking that when he regenerated a creature from my grave yard it would be under his control. but it doesn't say that it would be under his control, then he counters that it doesn't not say it goes under his control...Can you clear this up for me?

Sure... it's great in a Treefolk or Naya beast deck, but it can shine even in an elf deck, even elves can be really big... just ask Jagged-Scar Archers, Drove of Elves or Heedless One... or something boosted with Immaculate Magistrate
sure, those creatures are not likely to die to some burn, but to those lousy Doom Blades or Hideous Ends or whatever removals which allows you regenerating. You can even face some annoying deathtouchers...

@stumoore: Play an island, and say you win the game. When he objects, tell him where it says you don't.

Tree of Redemption might work well with this.
