I would be something like this (but this doesn't work)

\version "2.16.2"

verseI = \lyricmode {

You might also use manual syllable durations as in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-vocal-music#manual-syllable-durations. Thus you’re independent of either associatedVoice or lyricsto.
No reason there to advise against lilypond – it works very well without any actual notes in the output :-)

Best, Simon
