Title

The title of the album is taken from an entry in Gustavus Hindman Miller's 1901 book, "Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted, Or, What's In A Dream" [1]

The entry for evening is reproduced in the album's sparse liner notes:

Evening period of the day from 6:00 PM until nighttime

Evening is the period of time from the end of the afternoon to the beginning of night. Exact time when evening begins and ends depends on location and varies throughout the year. Its earliest part of a short period is evening twilight. The word 'evening' may be casually used to include the last waning afternoon shortly before sunset. There can be no precise definition in terms of clock time, but it is casually considered to start around 5 P.M. or 6 P.M. and to last until night or bed-time.

To see stars shining out clear, denotes present distress, but brighter fortune is behind your trouble.

Close Your Eyes is the fifth studio album by New Zealand singer-song writer Bic Runga. The album is made up of ten covers and two original tracks. Upon announcement of the album in October, Runga said: "There are so many songs I've always wanted to cover. I wanted to see if I could not just be a singer-songwriter, but someone who could also interpret songs. In the process, I found there are so many reasons why a cover version wouldn't work, perhaps because the lyrics were not something I could relate to first hand, because technically I wasn't ready or because the original was too iconic. But the songs that all made it on the record specifically say something about where I'm at in my life, better than if I'd written it myself. It was a challenging process, I'm really proud of the singing and the production and the statement".
