Other questions about "Now"
Q:
"Oh now, you just see that skin? It's the same she's been standing in." This is part of the lyric of the song Daughters by John Mayer. Can anyone explain what it means? I have no clue. What does 'skin' actually mean in this sentence? Thank you.
A:
"Oh now, you just see that skin? It's the same she's been standing in" is a visual way to say the event of her dad leaving affects her now the same as it did the day it happened.
So it literally means "skin." You can't take this portion out by itself and explain it. The song is talking about girls with daddy issues. Meaning they have walls up, can't trust men, and have issues with love because they weren't loved by their fathers growing up.

It used to be that when a name ended with an "s" like James, you would use the s' but it's more correctly 's no matter what. So if it's Mary's shirt it's "apostrophe s" and if it's James's shirt it's still "apostrophe s". I hope this helps! I made sure to check with my mom who's an English teacher
