Baby I would do anything for you
Expressing willingness to do anything for the person addressed (baby).
Nobody's ever treated me quiet like you do
Highlighting the uniqueness of the way the person treats the speaker.

And I'm gonna tell you what's on my mind
Announcing the intention to share what's on the speaker's mind.

I was wrong all along
Admitting to being wrong throughout a period of time.

Declaring a determination not to waste any more time.
