converting field type without losing value

ok so i have a column that stores minutes:seconds in MM:SS format.  I tried using the date field but couldn't figure it out so i just dumped it into varchar.  Now i want to convert it this time format because i can't sort by it in varchar.

 

So my question is what's the correct field type i should be using to have MM:SS and can i convert it without losing the current value?
