Thanks for your reply. What you have described below does work. I got
mine working as well as a result. To use your example this is the
broken version of my file (which usually works for a single lyric line):
> meloA = \notes { f'4 g'4 a'2 }
> txtA = \lyrics { foo bar baz }
> meloB = \notes { c'2 d'4 e'4 }
> txtB = \lyrics { boo far faz }
> \score {
> \notes <
> \addlyrics
> \context Staff = stafA \meloA
> \context Lyrics \txtA
Note the lack of a Lyrics label on the above line
> \addlyrics
> \context Staff = stafB \meloB
> \context Lyrics \txtB
Similarly here...

Can you explain why this doesn't work? It doesn't seem to make much sense at present
Thanks.
