Hey Scott...
Been away for a long while but think I'm back fairly regularly now...sure hope so!
Wow, what a lovely piece...gorgeous! You may not be a Johnny Daubert on keys, but you ain't too shabby, either.
Arrangement...Piano only on Intro & first half of first verse...finish first verse with holding bass notes. In the chorus, bring in drums and fairly strong strings. In the remainuing verses, keep all instruments aforementioned, backing off on the strings a bit but adding mild distortion on electric guitar for fill. Power last chorus with everything, as long as it doesn't cover the vox. Then take the outro back to piano only.
My ideas, for what they are worth, KOS. This is a great song with power and passion. Loved it! All the best, my friend! Greetings to Gwen...
Alan Hey Al! LOL - yeah, I can hear Johnny playing this in my head - but I'll never be able to make my hands do what his can.  Thanks so much for the detailed suggestions - I played through it in my head bringing the instruments you suggested in when you suggested they come in. Yeah, I think that works nicely. It's our 30th in a year - maybe I'll do it up right for the occasion. Thanks Pal! Scott
