Aucun mot ne saurait....
One last try for the girlfriend:
No words could ever tell you how much you mean to me.
=
>> Aucun mot ne saurait te dire combien tu comptes pour moi. (closest to original sentence both in tone and meaning)
There's a very important part of your sentence, which got lost. "could EVER". With the verb "saurait", you achieve both purposes, and you'll manage to keep: 1) the tense + 2) ever (the idea of how it's almost impossible for you to express in words your feelings toward GF.)
Good luck!

les mots ne peuvent pas exprimer tout ce que tu es pour moi.
no words se traduit par aucun mot ou il n'y a pas de mots pour. You mean est difficile à traduire parce que peu employé en francais.
