I'm Going Nuts!!

I'm desperately trying to find a song I want my internet sweatheart to hear, who I'm now married to ...
But I can't find it anywhere...If i remember correctly it's a woman singing and it's an 80s song....

The chorus goes like this:
You're the best thing that ever happend
You're that once in a lifetime thing...
No words can describe it.....


Pleeeeeeeeeeease!! Anyone???

Try "Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me" by GLADYS KNIGHT AND THE PIPS

it's not the song I'm looking for....

My next wild guess is "Once In A Lifetime" by Edyta Gorniak

Softly as the tone breaks
Softly before you make
Wanting as you lie beside me one day in the sun

Watching as my love grows
Some height, lonely wind blows
Waiting for the moment that you wake up in my arms

This is once in a lifetime
Baby, this is my moment
Loving you is so easy for me
You're the best thing that happened to me
This is once in a lifetime
This is my special moment
This is all meant to be and to think and to see
This is once in a lifetime

Gentler is your sweet touch
Oh... baby, you mean so much
Oh no, where this world will lead us, I believe in love

This is once in a lifetime
Baby, this is my moment
Loving you is so easy for me
You're the best thing that happened to me
Yeah, just once in a lifetime
This is my special moment
This is all meant to be and to see
This is my moment

(This is once in a lifetime)
(My special moment)
Yeah... no... no...
(Once in a lifetime)
(My special moment)
Yeah... yeah... no...

Tried that one too.. and it isn't it.... I was thinking maybe Dionne Warwick .... but I can't find any songs by her with those lyrics....

MrsL, you're killing me with this one...

There is a song "ONCE IN A LIFETIME" written by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse (1961) that has been covered by Dionne Warwick, Shirley Bassey, Lena Horne, Judy Garland, and Aretha Franklin to name a few. But it does not contain the phrases "no words" or "best thing" in it (see lyrics below). Peggy Lee does a song "ONCE IN A LIFETIME" written by Tomre, Mel and others. However all of these versions are all pre-1980's.

Just Once In A Lifetime
A girl knows a moment
One wonderful moment
When fate takes her hand.

And this is my moment
My Once In A Lifetime
When I can explore
a new and exciting land.

For once in my lifetime
I feel like a giant
I soar like an eagle
As tho' I had wings,

For this is my moment
My destiny calls me,
And tho' it may be
Just once in my lifetime
I'm going to do great things.

Juanita Holiday also has a nice song called "ONCE IN A LIFETIME" but I can not find lyrics for it.

Other wild guesses are :
"Once in a lifetime" by Sarah Brightman
"You're the best thing(That ever happened to my life)" by Celi Bee
"Once in a lifetime" by Patti Austin

Good luck on your quest and Happy Holidays

it was none of them either.... I am going nuts !! And driving you nuts too ha ha....
I sang it and tried to attach the file but it is too big...
Maybe if you hear it you know which one it is...If you wanna give me your email adress i can send the zip-file to you? I really wanna know which song it is... And i sing it with my beautiful swedish accent...

Thanks again!

Mrs L

My next wild guess "You're The Best Thing Yet" by ANITA BAKER
