Then I think you may consider spacing between 2 systems.

\paper {
  system-system-spacing =
    #'((basic-distance . 16)
       (minimum-distance . 10)
       (padding . 1)
       (stretchability . 60))
}

In your case one system is composed of one staff and two lyrics.
Spacing between second lyric and next staff _is_ the spacing between
2 systems.

See NR 4.1.4 Flexible vertical spacing \paper variables
