Te amaré toda mi vida y ningun/a otro/a...


Explanation:
Although since there's no further context I cannot be sure of "and no other" as I don't know what follows. Good luck.

Now that you gave the context, you can say "Te amaré toda mi vida/mi vida entera y solamente a ti y a nadie más."

Explanation:
A mí en este tipo de textos con función básicamente expresiva me parece importante mantener el énfasis de "no other"; "sólo a ti" (por cierto, lo de la tilde sólo es obligatorio cuando hay riesgo de confusión con "solo" de 'soledad') no tiene el mismo valor expresivo, para mi gusto. Saludos
