Talking Song from my childhood

Hi there:
I would ask a charitable soul to help me identify a song that lives in my mind after more than 25 years. I remeber hearing it in my parents car eight track player, but I do not know who sang or am I sure of the lyrics.
The era must have been end of Seventies up to 82 max.
The sound was a bit Boney M, a chorus of girls singing, very catchy tune but not happy-happy as Boney M.
I think it had a refrain like:
Love you more than words ...something... like I never before...
I can whistle the song so if you think you can help me, I can call you you and whistle it or hmmm it!
It would be relly nice to find this song. it has made a lasting impression on me, at the time I was 4 or 6 years old!
Many thanks to everybody!

As Ethan Reed stated, sounds very much like "How Much I Love You".

Talking Re: Song from my childhood

Hi guys:
Many thanks for your help. I did record myself hmmm it (don't laugh, you could be next!) but I cannot upload here, it seem Discomusic forum doesn't accept any media files apart from text ones, I did try to load it on YouTube (the shame of it, can you imagine how desperate I am?) but still fail to load due to file type (WAV converted to MPEG).
Any ideas?
I'm pretty sure someone will recognize it immediately, it's quite a catchy tune, almost BoneyM or Arabesque, might be one hit band, don't know!
Many thanks!

You need to record yourself on your computer (mp3 file), upload the file on zShare, YouSendIt or any other file host, then post the link (obtained thru the host site) here. Done. Then everyone can consult your link & hopefully give you an answer...

This peaked my interest and I too couldn't find an album that carries that song, I searched before reading this part of the post. I spent a few frustrasting minutes trying to find complete discography. I spent less time DL it from a p2p than trying to find the album...that shouldn't be . Just a comment.

AH...the difference is between Earth, Wind & Fire & the actual group Earth & Fire.... very tricky!!! I couldn't imagine EW&F sounding like Boney M!!!!
