This is a contemporary old fashioned love letter written to a soldier off to war on our anniversary.... before they had email, text and facetime....... it's my personal song so I'll save you the details. ....No idea how to rewrite it to make current so I guess it's off to the movies. with any luck ....I refer to this one a casualty of war;( As always, Jennifer Nelson Dowdicans vocals are off the chain in the song!!
What could I do with it now?

DEAR LOVE, I HAD TO FIND A DIFFERENT WAY
TO TELL YOU ALL THE WORDS THAT SAY I LOVE YOU
MY HEART YOU'RE HOLDING IN YOUR HANDS
WITH THIS LOVE LETTER PLEASE UNDERSTAND
I WANT YOU TO SEE WHAT I FEEL INSIDE
AS I POUR OUT MY SOUL IN BLACK AND WHITE
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE AND COLOUR YOUR WORLD
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR GIRL
FOR ALL THE WORDS THAT I DONT SAY
PLEASE READ BETWEEN THE LINES
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE OF MY LOVE
IN BLACK AND WHITE
AS I PUT EMOTIONS ON A PAGE
TO TOUCH YOU IN THAT DEEPER PLACE INSIDE
WE ARE EYE TO EYE IN MY MIND
FACE TO FACE I TELL YOU WHY I NEED YOU
CAN YOU HEAR ME IN SILENCE
YOUR HEART NEXT TO MINE
PAINTING YOU A MASTERPIECE OF LOVE
IN BLACK AND WHITE
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE AND COLOUR YOUR WORLD
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR GIRL
FOR ALL THE WORDS THAT I CANT SAY PLEASE READ BETWEEN THE LINES
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE OF MY LOVE IN BLACK AND WHITE
YOURE A MILLION MILES AWAY .........BUT YOUR FACE NEVER FADES
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE AND COLOUR YOUR WORLD
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR GIRL
FOR ALL THE WORDS THAT I DONT SAY
FOREVER ON MY MIND
I WANT TO PAINT YOU A PICTURE OF MY LOVE
IN BLACK AND WHITE

Really quite nice—love songs NEVER got out of fashion, even if they’re simply black and white—good job!!! btw, nice job on vocals and piano.
