song title grammar in a story

N

I'm writing a Children's story. The sentence is as follows: Grace, who had
just turned seven, was humming, somewhere over the rainbow, as she strolled
through her backyard.

Question is: should the title be capitalized, Quotation marks, or just as is?

Grace, who had just turned seven, was humming "Somewhere over the Rainbow"
as she strolled through her backyard.

See that's why we don't answer questions like this -- the _title_ of
the song is "Over the Rainbow," and if Grace was humming, she wasn't
humming any words at all.
