Yesterday's Dreams (song)

"Yesterday's Dreams" is a 1968 single recorded by The Four Tops for the Motown label. The single was one of the first the group released after the departure of Holland-Dozier-Holland, who had handled the majority of the Four Tops recordings prior to 1968. Released from the album of the same name, the song only became a modest hit on the US chart while reaching #23 in the UK. The song was written by Vernon Bullock, Jack Goga, Ivy Jo Hunter and Pam Sawyer.
