[Verse 1]
I entered the house on the hill one day
Trying my best just to get away
No one was home, but the voices were clear
They let me know I was welcome here

[Chorus]
Life is so wonderful
Life is so beautiful
Stay awhile
No one gets out alive
Life is so wonderful
Life is so beautiful
Just smile
No one gets out alive

[Bridge]
I walked through the halls of that haunted place
A whisper was leading me through the maze
Promising warmth, knowing my name
Knowing my reasons and why I came

[Verse 2]
A face in a painting looked down on me
Smiled at me, loving and tenderly
Reached out her hand, stroking my hair
Suddenly voices were everywhere
[Chorus]
Life is so wonderful
Life is so beautiful
Stay awhile
No one gets out alive
Life is so wonderful
Life is so beautiful
Just smile
No one gets out alive
