This phrase seems to come up a lot in music. It often seems to not make sense to me in the context of the songs in which they appear. What does it mean in the Green Day song, for example?
Green Day, "When I Come Around"Stone Roses, "Going Down" - "I'm going down / I'm coming around"Gin Blossoms, "Mrs. Rita" - "I just hope she's coming around again"Carly Simon, "Coming Around Again"Urge Overkill, "Sister Havana" - "Come around to my way of thinking"

I think in the Green Day song the phrase refers to both coming to his senses (from drugs, bad mood, emotional distance) and physically coming back around - (out of his house, back to someone else's house or neighborhood). I'd never paid attention to those lyrics before.
