"Until The End Of The World" Lyrics U2

The song can be seen as a pretty blunt reference to Judas'' betrayal of Jesus.

The first verse discusses The Last Supper that Jesus had with his Apostles; the second is about Judas identifying Jesus with a kiss on the cheek in the Garden of Gethsemane; and the final verse's lyric is about Judas'' suicide after being overwhelmed with guilt and sadness at his betrayal of The Son of God.

"Until The End Of The World" Lyric:

Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold just passing time
Last time we met was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time
Except you
You were talking about the end of the world

I took the money
I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think
You led me on with those innocent eyes
You know I love the element of surprise
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart
You, you were acting like it was
The end of the world

Love, love, love
Love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love
Love, love, love

In my dream I was drowning my sorrows
Love, love, love
Love, love
Love, love
But my sorrows, they learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Love, love, love
Love, love
Love, love
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You, you said you'd wait
'Til the end of the world
