Considering the rest of the album deals with death, loss, remembering and the grieving process, I think it's safe to say this song was inspired by the fact that she was thinking about a departed loved one so much in her daily life that she's dreaming about the person. Perhaps she missed the person so much, she desperately wanted to see them again, and this carries over into her dreams. It has nothing to do with sex or previous romantic relationships.

The album was dedicated to their manager who died. He also happened to be the guy that got them into the business professionally. Also, Dolores' grandfather died around this time, whom I understand she was very close to.

I know her voice is sexy but there is nothing sexual about this album. It's an intimate, personal album, but not like that. It's a brilliant album and yet it's so sad when you really listen to the lyrics, listen to it from start to finish and know a little of the history that surrounds it's making.
