When I first heard this song, the place "where the streets have no name" reminded me of heaven. I still feel it is a connotation of the afterlife but it also could signify the abolition of war and poverty, given that U2 (especially Bono) have always strongly supported these goals. It's an excellent song, no matter what it means.
