Yesterday's Dream is the seventh overall and sixth studio album recorded by the Four Tops, issued by Motown Records in August 1968. The album was recorded as the main Motown songwriting/producing partnership of Holland–Dozier–Holland were leaving the label, and as a result only contains one song from them, "I'm in a Different World", which was released as a single.

Another Motown song on the album is "Remember When", the rest are cover songs produced by Ivy Jo Hunter (the title track, "We've Got a Strong Love [On Our Side]"), Ashford & Simpson ("Can't Seem to Get You out of My Mind") and Frank Wilson.
