Is there a way to define melismas differently in different
stanzas?
Yes. This is the purpose of the single underscore, which is
placed in the stanza which contains the melisma, like this:
{ play. It __ _ might be the }
See Multiple notes to one syllable in the Notation Reference
to version 2.13 for an explanation of the five ways to indicate
melismata:

Below is the 3rd bar of Erroll Garner's Misty. The "It" in the
second
stanza should coincide with the G and Ab of the first triplet.
\include "english.ly"
<<
\new Voice = "misty" \relative c'' {
\key ef \major
{ c2 \times 2/3 { r8 g af } \times 2/3 { c ef g } }
}
\new Lyrics\lyricsto "misty" {
\set stanza = "1."
{ tree, and I feel like I'm }
}
\new Lyrics\lyricsto "misty" {
\set stanza = "2."
{ play. It __ might be the }
}
\version "2.13.23"
Thanks
