I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
This lonely isolation
Follows me through my dreams
I wander around with doubt
So cold and incomplete
There is nothing
Here for comfort
The spark of hope I see
I breathe deep and fill my lungs
To silently release
An echo
An echo
An echo
This is more than a dream to me
I breathe deep and drown my lungs
And release silently
I gasp for breath to only hear
What's inside me
An echo
An echo

More than a dream to me

My scream
I gasp for breath to only hear
I gasp for breath to only hear

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
When its refering to an echo of a scream. I believe its talking about his soul screaming, echoing out through his mouth, due to the loneliness of his soul. Could it be that he dreams of happyness, only to disappear as he wakes up and screams.
