Also, water is very common in the universe as it is a byproduct of the star formation.
BUt you need alot then just that. You need a large moon to skim atmosphere and slow rotation, you need a magnetosphere which means a spinning core. You also need active plate tectonics. And that is just for simple life too evolve.
As said earlier, there are certainly extremophiles who thrive in environments that are inhospitable. Heck, we know there's a giant ocean underneath the ice of Europa, which gets warmed and melts every so often to keep the ocean from freezing over due to the gravitation pull of Jupiter that literally warps the surface. If I had to guess, then perhaps tube worms of the type found on the Earth's ocean floor could be there.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
