Format amount of seconds to minutes and seconds with momentjs

I'd like to use momentjs to use a given amount of seconds (e.g. 65) and format that to minutes and seconds (so in the case of 65 seconds it should format it to '01:05'). I've looked around the momentjs docs and also here but I couldn't quite get to the right solution. I know there's a way to do this with just pure JavaScript, but I'd like to use momentjs for this. Any suggestions?

If you insist on doing this using moment.js, you can do something like this: Start with a 00:00:00.000 time and add seconds, minutes, etc. to it. Here is an example:

const result = moment("00:00:00.000", "hh:mm:ss.SSS").add(65, "s").format("mm:ss");
console.log(result);
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/momentjs/2.14.1/moment-with-locales.min.js"></script>

The problem is that since this is the time of a date, when you add 24 hours to it, you'll end up with 00:00:00 instead of 24:00:00.
