There's the (scientifically false) phrase that "lightning never strikes the same place twice." And, I think what this song is kind of referring to, is the hope of Steve Harris that maybe it could - in as far as maybe they could regain the success they had in their older days. They somewhat have, although it took a few more years rejoining with Bruce and Adrian (everyone underestimates Adrian, but it seems to me he's as important as Bruce to the band) to do so.
Mind you, I do really enjoy the Blaze albums with Maiden (his solo stuff is great, too - it has a more metal guitar sound than his work with Maiden. Much of the criticism to the Blaze years of Maiden don't take into account the other things the band was doing in the late 90s - like their Rush/Queensryche subdued guitar sound and Adrian's absence). Anyway, I liked this song from the first listen of the album.
