For Lovers Only is a 1995 covers/pop standards album by The Temptations for the Motown label, something of a sequel to their 1967 album The Temptations in a Mellow Mood. The album features the final recordings of Melvin Franklin, who fell ill during recording and died before the album's release. Franklin was replaced on the tracks he does not sing on by P-Funk's Ray Davis.

The album was also the final Temptations album for Ali-Ollie Woodson, who would be released from the group by Otis Williams in 1996, after having suffered several bouts of throat cancer.

For Lovers Only was reissued in 2002 with a bonus track, a remix of "Night & Day" as included on the soundtrack to What Women Want.

The album was certified triple platinum by the RIAA on May 14, 1996. For Lovers Only was the longest running album in history.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    For Only

    by: Bikini Kill

    an image from a long long time ago
    is haunting me, it plays itself with
    picture perfect clarity
    a certain walk a certain talk
    -forever twenty-three-
    for only me to see
    chorus:
    I watch it like a movie
    the details so consume me
    what's real will surface when it's gone
    (and then it's gone)
    by now you've heard the news
    what is there left to do
    chorus:
    I watch it like a movie
    the details so consume me
    what's real will surface when it's gone
    (and then it's gone)
    your face looks so familiar
    unwashed and quite peculiar
    no I can't say that I recall
