It's a good start to a song, for sure. Regarding your request for advice... It seems that not only is the same melody repeated, but the chord progression is the same throughout. If you know what key you are in, you can drop the chords for a while and experiment with different intervals for the piano melody. Or you could change up some of the chords for others which benefit the key and movement, and then play the melody to go with those new chords. Sometimes even simple changes can make a big impact on a melody as well... Going in and simply deleting certain notes can give an openness, and a slight shift in rhythm. Transposing certain notes can also make an impact, often without destroying the feel of the melody. I get a noticeable difference by, for example, selecting the lowest notes in the melody and transposing them up an octave or two, or selecting the highest notes of the melody and dropping them an octave or two. My best advice is to not let yourself be constrained by a chord structure, but to hear the nuances of the note intervals, and draw emotion from it. Sometimes changing one or two notes in a line can have a drastic effects on the listener! Finally, there is the very simple option of changing what sound is playing the melody at certain points. It will change the impression while keeping the theme. Hope those help a bit! I enjoyed the song so far!
